Another glimpse of the sun rising. May seem like a regular occurrence to some.
Yet this blessing is for those that aren't able to witness today's sun.
You see. These small things in life have big impacts.
Most go unnoticed until it doesn't happen. Which leads to an uncertain attack.
Waking up with no pain in my core or limbs.
Walking to the closet to put on fresh jeans with a pair of Timbs.
Cleaning up the face from the night slumber, dabbing the hair with some gel.
Opening the pantry to see food on multiple shelves.
Thousands upon thousands of things to be thankful for.
None too big, none to small. Be thankful for it all.
Whether it's having a car to go from here to there,
Or getting out that stressful scenario and happy to be over here.
In this world of "I Need This" and "Right Here, Right Now!"
Don't forget about the small things that got you here to the Now.
Along your hustle and strive, don't forget to say thanks with a smile.
Who knows? That may have mutated to frown if your world got rocked upside-down.
My mind has been racing like a Dodge Viper up in Auburn Hills.
Lead food welded to the pedal, roaring in this beautiful piece of metal.
Yet I had to find a way to pump the brakes.
Coming to a stop, exit stage left. Look upon the horizon and realize what was at stake.
The stakes couldn't be higher. Well actually, yes they could.
In reality, I couldn't have been here; still could be slinging in the local hood.
A few small changes and my life has been forever changed.
From a young buck rocking a slim chain to grindin' on the high roads from lane to lane.
Seeing things clearly and thank the Almighty for the blessings bestowed upon me.
All the many gifts that tagged along for the world to see.
No matter what you're going through: Keep Going, Smile and don't forget to say Thank You.
Because you never know. Those small things can lead to a bigger you.
Cheers!
