Don't rue any day
or any time.
Enjoy the silent
beauty of the night;
celebrate the darkest day;
relish the snow,
and the rain,
and the bitter winds,
and the fog that
spills over
the hills.
Let the lightning
blaze through the sky;
and the thunder roar.
Let the hail
fall hard and cold.
For all of these things
are part of your life,
and each day
and every moment
of your life is precious.
Besides, you'll
later find that
even the worst storms
and darkest days
held blessings
of their own.
