I'm thankful
All the while
For everything I've not been denied

I accept the challenges that face me during the day
And I continue to smile away

Everyone I meet appreciates being given a smile
But yet they question why I always have one to give
I answer that our life here on earth is only a trial
And with a positive attitude is how I feel I must live

I smile
So that my face doesn't wrinkle
And my blood pressure stays low

I smile
So that in my eyes you see a twinkle
And in my face, a healthy glow

I smile
To take away the frown on your face
Caused by being caught up in the daily rat race
