Being Thankful is not Always Easy
It is not always easy being thankful,
as we age our burdens can pile up,
when cynical or bitter,
it is difficult to see a brighter light,
yet faith is a way of seeing, of being,
based on a sober choice,
to be bitter or thankful,
a choice as well,
yet, it can feel like death to embrace
what we have, in hope, and forgive, let go,
trust.-Br.MD

I am now old, and the struggle continues the same one, yet I see its meaning—
to keep me moving forward even when I fail. I seem to be getting happier
as I age, but there is still a way to go. I am now 76, and the years go by so very fast.-Br.MD
