Be Brave

It's easy to ignore the things you see We can easily dismiss or reason it out The violence we see, the people that need help somebody else will help, I have to go What if nobody helped What if the injured animal on the side of the road Didn't get the help it could have and instead of recovering it died slowly. We fear what we don't know We find comfort, in daily schedules The help we give can be extraordinary Be brave! and help people we don't know Be brave! and save an animals life Be brave! don't ignore it Be brave! feel the rush of something good Be brave! and maybe you will find Something you did't know was missing in you all along Be Brave.

When we display acts of kindness and compassion to others, it returns to us tenfold. We need to seize every opportunity to act courageously because we will certainly find something we "didn't know was missing...all along." Very inspiring and uplifting poem, Crystal! Love, Carolyn
