Finding a Celebration in Every Day

When I woke up to the chime of the alarm clock,
I looked at the sunshine on my window,
And breathed a sigh of gratitude,
For the sunlight to to the air,
Everything feels like it’s truly out of this world,
Finding that silver lining everywhere,
Every day can be a occasion to celebrate, not only birthdays and festivals
Have to be celebrated,
From the majestic trees to the enchanting flowers,
Not only the beautiful nature—
But also our family members who work hard for us every day,
Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and Grandparent’s Day—
Are not just for one day—
They deserve to be celebrated every day,
Making their day special should happen everyday!

Caring for yourself is also something,
You should also celebrate yourself,
How you have been working hard to how you have achieved something,
Finding a celebration everyday—
Is being positive everyday,
Finding a silver lining a everyday,
Seeing a ray of hope everyday,
Everyday might seem different!
But I am sure that there has to be something that is worthy of being celebrated,

For instance, that smile on the face of the milkman,
When I thank him for his help—
And the glimmer on the face of my fencing coach,
When I win a medal!

There is a celebration hidden in the heart,
Of every single day, and I think the skill
Is just in finding it!
