Recipe for JOY

Serendipity is taking life as it comes
Rejoicing in the fun surprises
That happen, ignoring the irritations
Common to daily life. If given lemons,
Make lemonade and share it

Why doesn’t that always work?
Perhaps we take ourselves too seriously?
Remember those stressful situations
That years later we laughed at
So hard that tears came to our eyes?


Attitude is what it’s all about
An optimistic outlook brings hope,
Which with a little bit of purpose
Stirred in, helps us know why
We are here and Who is in charge
