Changing the Vision

Sometimes we stay sad because we do not get something,
We stay unpleased, and about what we do not have, we think.
In our hearts arises a big feeling of unhappiness,
Because what we desire, we do not possess.
 
At this moment, we forget all conquered things,
About what we have in our lives, we forget everything.
We cannot see the blessings we have already received,
For what we do not have, we are looking fixedly.
 
We need to change our vision, and look in another direction,
For everything we already have, we must show appreciation.
We must thank God for everything He already gave us,
We must stop demanding from God what has not happened to us.
 
Our hearts must keep calm and trust in God,
Knowing that at the right time, what we need will be given by the Lord.
Because God is perfect, and He will never fail in anything,
We only have to learn to trust and wait for Him.
