COUNTING BLESSINGS

A special collaboration with Vidushi Jain

A grateful soul is a beautiful magnet for miracles

It ignites a shining spark of delight in the darkness

Being thankful brings pure joy to the downcast heart

Counting small things that give a positive start

Gratitude is the path to a happy life and towards heaven's gate

This sense of thankfulness is something the soul always appreciates

Even when everything dances to its own tune and brings you down

This sense of appreciation grows humble roots and keeps you fixed to ground

Give a word of thanks to all those who are there,

Respect their presence as they are the ones who care.

Acquiring the power of gratitude won't depict you as a weakling,

Thanking them, however, would fill you with contentment.

Inculcate these words forever in your mind,

Titillate this emotion in others in no time.

Using this sentiment might make someone's day,

Dodging this feeling will make you pay.

Maybe, it is through the dark-ened journey,

That we are taught how to chase the path of light and positivity

That we are taught how enchanting ordinary moments can be

That we are taught to value and treasure the aesthetic beauty

Maybe, it is through the dark-ened journey

And remembering the priceless memories we make

That we are taught how to appreciate the warmth

Of the happiest days that come our way
