Throwback Thursday – Hey, who took my glass half full …

… and replaced it with one half empty!

Glass Half Empty

I’m simply not sure how it happened
It was there for all who could see,
But now it has changed
things all rearranged
My glass is half empty to me.

~

I’ve always seen things from the plus side
A most agreeable place one can be
But now alas
I view all I lack
And wonder what next I will see.

~

I’m hoping it soon will be half full
The glass that so fills with delight
But right now I despair
It just isn’t there
Completely gone from my sight

Even during the times when it seems as if things are more than you can handle, hang in there. During adversity there will be others who care, showing up to make the difference, if you let them.

Keep your heart open, your courage strong, and your faith undiminished. Know this too shall pass. Be good to others and take care of you. Remember, if you don’t take care of yourself, you may not be there for the ones who need you!

With great affection,

  1. Great advice as always Penny! 🙂 My glass is always half full, although I have to keep my eye on it because someone keeps trying to give me the half empty one. 🙂

  2. AnElephantCant do without breakfast
    He needs sustenance to get his day under way
    In Portland Oregon
    They think he is foregin
    But he still gets his glass of OJ

    And also Voodoo Doughnuts!
    Happy days!
