At times this world seems more than blind
When all we are allowed to see is violence mixed in with strife
The world around becomes dulled and dark
And seems as though
We are overrun with malevolent persons
Our pasts haunted, Our presents uncertain
And something is seemingly always lurking
This world has simply become much to bare

But, there are those who truly care
They lend a shoulder, share in the load
Because as they well know
Together we accomplish much more than doing it alone.

Just as it's sung in every song,
and told in stories, who's tellers are long gone
There one thing that can vanquish this dark
and that is kindness shone from the heart

So this extends my challenge to you
That even as this world is about to break,
You pause and think before spreading weeds of hate.
Seize that moment, Use this time
To shine your light, and be the kind.
