One Fine and Lovely Day
One fine and lovely day
I decided that I wanted more from life.
I decided that I wouldn't be boring.
I decided that I would play more.
I decided that volunteering is socializing at its best.
I decided that I wouldn't care if my friends thought I was silly to take up painting.
I decided that I didn't care if I would never be a good painter, I just like to paint.
I decided that I would smile if someone else did something silly.
I decided that I will never be embarrassed about laughing out loud again.
I decided that lying had never spared anyones feelings anyway.
I decided that I would be truthful.
I decided that I would be kind while being truthful.
I decided that I really like people when I decide not to be afraid of them.
I decided that fearing life and people didn't help anyway, so why bother.
I decided that I would put special effort into enjoying one fine and lovely day.
I decided that I would put special effort into seeing each fine and lovely day.
I decided that I would no longer assume that any day was not a fine and lovely day.
I decided that fine and lovely days are the Gift God gave me.
I decided that I should thank God for each of these fine and lovely days.
I decided that I should thank God that He wants me to love these fine and lovely gifts.
I decided that I would love Him and His gifts, every fine and lovely day.
I realized that God had finally gotten through to me, and taught me to love,
One fine and lovely day.
