Notice we always want,
what we do not have?
Mostly its money,
recognition or such.
Or, it's what we missed
or left behind.
We pine for the
should have been ours.
Selfishly.
For we ignore,
this great gift.
We simply overlook,
what reflects in the mirror.
A unique collection of cells,
a grouping of thoughts,
living. An unnatural state,
by rights, it would appear.
So maybe we should
instead consider ourselves,
unbelievably fortunate.
In simply living.
