Kindness takes you further than you may think
and yes I know you've likely heard this all before

But the difference between moving forward and holding open the door

It sparks something wonderful, it sparks something good

and from those sparks we fan the flames

Changing something from a "could have done this" to a
"I know that I should"

I know I speak to cynics, those who know the world for what it is

I know it is hard, it is harsh, cold and
it rarely ever forgives

In spite of all this, and I know it may sound mad,

I implore you to give

Give your time, your touch, even a passing smile

And make this world we live in, make our lives

A little more worthwhile
madness, I know
