I Accept My Life As It Is...


I accept my life as it is you know!
But at times it's hard to get through the day,
When my spine is crippling me in such pain,
But I guess this is it, and it's really ok.
I know that this is the way it is,
For me, it's simply a way of life,
And even though I was shunned,
Cos it caused embarrassment and strife!

It didn't embarrass me though!
Nah, cos I accept it as it is,
And anyway I have to tell it true,
My electric wheelchair is the biz!!
I can zip all over the place you know!
Wizzing here and there all over!
Yep, I have to say, no matter the agony,
My life is a bed of clover!

Because I am blessed with my kids,
And a husband second to none!
Oh yes, my life is just wonderful!
Though I'm always in pain, it's still full of fun!
And our grandchildren are simply stars!
That twinkle brightly in the night sky,
Oh yes, but I am so very happy...
Is it any wonder that I cry?

My tears are not of sadness,
But at times, I get a little sad,
And I reckon that I'm allowed some tears,
Tell me, is it really so bad?
Nope, cos tears are for many reasons,
We cry with pain and happiness too!
And if you had this body of mine,
I think that you may cry at times too!

But as I say, I accept it, I do,
Even though I cry in so much pain,
For tears are the great healer!
Once dried up, I can smile again!
And no matter the reasons I suffer,
Jesus suffered a million times more than me,
So who am I to moan and complain?
For at least I have a life; only through He!

For He died to let my sins go!
And clear my heart and make it clean,
So you see, I have to thank Him for that,
And if you're a Christian, you'll know what I mean!
