Be Kind

Sometimes people put on a brave face

Smiling away

Hiding the pain inside just to get through the day

Please be kind to those you meet

Some are fighting battles you could not comprehend

A caring gesture to show your there and be that supportive friend

We all perceive reality from what we see and feel

For others with opposing thoughts to them their experience is as real

Kindness is a gift and it can go along way

Reach out make a difference help someone today

If some are rude and mean

Please don't take it to heart

Realise it's a reflection on them -not on you

Being in a dark place where fear and depression prey

It's hard for them to picture the brightness of the day

Keep your head held high and continue to do

Your best

Key lessons along the way that put you to the test

Each will help you learn and grow

Keep your values positive and true

On with the show - there is work to do :)

There are no dress rehearsals with this precious life

Time is a gift so please use it well

Be grateful everyday

Let your light lead the way

You never know when you may need this virtue too

Karma is the key and good comes back to you

A listening ear, can go along way

Providing support to those that have lost their way

A simple smile or a coffee is easy to do

Giving others hope

Appreciating you

Treasured by those that need this helping hand

Kindness a gift and one shared with love

Another of those presents passed on from above xx
