THE WORLD IS MINE - Author Unknown Today, upon a bus, I saw a very beautiful woman and wished I were as beautiful. When suddenly she rose to leave, I saw her hobble down the aisle. She had one leg and used a crutch. But as she passed, she passed a smile. Oh, God, forgive me when I whine. I have two legs; the world is mine. I stopped to buy some candy. The lad who sold it had such charm. I talked with him, he seemed so glad. If I were late, itd do no harm. And as I left, he said to me, I thank you, youve been so kind. Its nice to talk with folks like you. You see, he said, ?Im blind. Oh, God, forgive me when I whine. I have two eyes; the world is mine. Later while walking down the street, I saw a child I knew. He stood and watched the others play, but he did not know what to do. I stopped a moment and then I said, Why dont you join them dear? He looked ahead without a word. I realized, he couldnt hear. Oh, God, forgive me when I whine. I have two ears; the world is mine. With feet to take me where Id go.. With eyes to see the sunsets glow. With ears to hear what I would know. Oh, God, forgive me when I whine Ive been blessed indeed, the world is mine. If this poem makes you feel thankful, just forward it to your friends. After all, its just a simple reminder that we have so much to be thankful for! Give the gift of love. It never comes back empty! I am truly blessed with AWESOME FRIENDS! To God be the glory, great things He hath done.
