How lucky are we

Be proud you made it—

actually, we all have.

The gift of life is beautiful

for the simple reason

that you’re here.

Many struggle,

many succeed,

but every one of us

was allowed to live.

Celebrate the love

you’ve been shown—

even if it’s scarce—

because waking with a smile

is a gift worth keeping.

How many make it?

The millions who have walked this earth,

and not one of them

has been you—

the rarest thing this world will ever offer.

Hold the joy of another day

deep in your heart,

leaving no room

for despair.

Give your spirit support—

rejoice in every chance

to simply be,

and watch life

find more reasons

to keep you thriving.
