Everything Is Awesome

Someone walks up to you and says, “Isn’t everything Awesome?”

You immediately glance at them in a foolish way because deep down in your heart and mind you respond: NO! Everything is NOT Awesome.

Why?

My family is broken apart, there is no money to do the things and want and to get the things is need.

I feel like everything is against me.

I push, they pull,

I pull, they push,

STOP!

Then I stop and reflect and remembered,

While walking to work, I saw multiple homeless people begging.

Watching the news, children crying, hungry for food and love

Dying from diseases untreated,

I then pray to God, thanking Him for health, strength and for providing for me.

I look up at the person with the largest smile and replied YES! Everything is Awesome.
