The Bright Side

In times of good
and in times of bad…
the good wish they would
while the bad wish they had.

Going from thought to thought,
and from one extreme to the other,
there are dreams that you sought
and dreams that you smother.

The key to living is not the path you take,
nor the path you traveled,
it’s the things you forsake
while your world is unraveled.

Remember this while you smile away…
when you arise each morning… call it a great day.
