It is not how long you know a person that counts.

It's if you made a difference to their lives
their minds
their hearts
If you changed how they feel for the better
Gave them confidence.
Stopped them from jumping
Convinced them that they are great
That their lives mattered
Counted

Helped them to see more clearly
Or to see how important they are
How this world would be a lot lonelier without them
How their smile cheers you up
How their kindness helps you to believe

Even in just a few minutes
Your kindness and sweet words
Could change someone's life

You have the power to do this
You have the power to help
To make someone great again.
To heal hearts
And minds
And souls
Never underestimate your power

Give love
It can take seconds

Receive love with grace and gratitude

It is not how long you know a person that counts.
