I must remember
To count my blessings,
For though things
Could have been better,
They could easily have been
Far worse.
Who would I have become
Without the challenges
I begrudgingly faced?
How strong would I be
Had I not had to portage
The weight of my past?
How could I appreciate
The beauty of love
Had I never been without?
How would I know
The miracle of a smile
Had I not
Survived so many frowns?
Where would I be
If I had given up hope
Or lost my dream?
Yes, I must remember
To count my blessings
Each and every day,
No matter what difficulty I may face.

About Me
- Charlie McCormick
- Adana, Türkiye
- I am an engineer, and have been for most of my life, but my passion is writing. I have developed a style that seems to suite me, somewhere between poetry, and common everyday dialog. I have done a few things in my life and gained a bit of wisdom along the way. The narratives I write are my way of passing on the wisdom I have collected. They consist of daily observations about the nature of life, the people I meet and the situations I find myself in. I try to add a few more each day to keep the blog alive, and to give me a sense of the momentum of my life. If any of you feel like corresponding with me, asking questions, or whatever, please send me an email at mccormick.charlie@yahoo.com. I would appreciate your feedback.
