Allow Yourself

Allow yourself to feel contented if only for a short while
If about your biggest worry you can manage a smile
Then with your tribulations you can manage to cope
The one who can smile under stress is one who lives in hope
Of a change of luck in the days ahead
In the one who can smile hope it is far from dead
Some people like to complain though compared to some their biggest worry is small
And in truth have nothing to complain of at all
On their attitude to life they become their own greatest foes
In humanity there are all sorts one does have to suppose
In human beings the greatest barrier to any form of happiness
Is this weight on the mind that is known as stress
And the one who can smile despite having a bad day
Is the one for self who can see better times on the way.
