“This morning I woke up, how blessed I am Eyes to see, a voice to speak Words to read and love to feel? If this isn't something to be thankful for, I'm not sure what is.”

Meaning

This reads as a gratitude note that turns ordinary functioning into something sacred. It points to the idea that sight, speech, reading, and feeling are gifts rather than defaults, and can be taken to mean that thankfulness begins by noticing what is already present. It lands on a quiet morning, when a person feels the weight of simply being able to begin the day.
