What If

What if I couldn’t see? I wouldn’t know how to be. What if I couldn’t walk? I wouldn’t be able to go to the park. What if I couldn’t smell? I wouldn’t know early monsoon shower smell. What if I couldn’t feel? I wouldn’t even know how to heal. What if I couldn’t taste? All the gourmet food would go to waste. What if I couldn’t touch? I wouldn’t know love as such. What if I couldn’t cry? I wouldn’t be able to let go of grief even if I try. What if I couldn’t smile? I wouldn’t be able to feel light even for a while. I can do all of these things Lord, it’s a blessing. , These are the gifts We realize when we are unfit. I have really no clue How the less privileged do. I guess with courage and acceptance They go on with grace.
