The Challenge
If I was brave enough
to speak,
I would say, “Stop it!”
If I was eloquent enough
to persuade,
I would ask,
“Why not just be kind?”
People claim to want peace,
they claim to want happiness,
they ask for forgiveness
and the benefit of the doubt,
but then the same people,
judge
argue
brush off
complain about
the rest of the populace.
If we assumed those around us
are doing their best
rather than ruining our lives,
would we be more inclined to help?
If we didn’t take another’s bad day personally,
would we be the bright spot
to make them smile?
I dare you to be kind today
and see how everything is improved
by simple kindness.
