I Choose

I choose happiness

the road less traveled

where the grass is greener

and the flowers bloom wild

I choose joy

in the little things

because these are usually

much bigger when near

I choose peace

in all that surrounds

to give more than I take

to make the world better

I choose love

to friend or stranger

to give big

and perhaps receive

I choose faith

when times seem dark

to find that glint of light

in a cloud of grey

I choose hope

because without it

there is little chance

for a brighter day

Hugs,
