Positive Side for Everyone

LOOK EVERYTHING IN THE POSITIVE SIDE...

FOR THE TAXES I PAY 
BECAUSE IT MEANS
I AM EMPLOYED . 

FOR THE MESS TO CLEAN AFTER A PARTY 
BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE
BEEN SURROUNDED BY FRIENDS. 

FOR THE CLOTHES THAT FIT A LITTLE TOO SNUG 
BECAUSE IT MEANS
I HAVE ENOUGH TO EAT. 

FOR MY SHADOW THAT WATCHES ME WORK 
BECAUSE IT MEANS
I AM OUT IN THE SUNSHINE. 

FOR A LAWN THAT NEEDS MOWING,
WINDOWS THAT NEED CLEANING,
AND GUTTERS THAT NEED FIXING 
BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE A HOME .

FOR ALL THE COMPLAINING 
I HEAR ABOUT THE GOVERNMENT 
BECAUSE IT MEANS
WE HAVE FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

FOR THE PARKING SPOT 
I FIND AT THE FAR END OF THE PARKING LOT 
BECAUSE IT MEANS I AM CAPABLE OF WALKING
AND I HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH TRANSPORTATION . 

?

FOR MY HUGE HEATING BILL 
BECAUSE IT MEANS
I AM WARM. 

 

FOR THE PILE OF LAUNDRY AND IRONING 
"BECAUSE IT MEANS
I HAVE CLOTHES TO WEAR. 

FOR WEARINESS AND ACHING MUSCLES
AT THE END OF THE DAY
BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE BEEN
CAPABLE OF WORKING HARD. 

FOR THE ALARM THAT GOES OFF
IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS   "BECAUSE IT MEANS I AM ALIVE. 
? 
? 

AND FINALLY,

FOR TOO MUCH E-MAIL 
BECAUSE ?

IT MEANS I HAVE
FRIENDS WHO ARE THINKING OF ME.
