Kindness
Kindness
By Michelle Morris

We are all capable of being good
We are all capable of being kind
But it all starts with ourselves
Embracing who we are
Those small steps forward
Being better who you were yesterday
The experience and the lessons
Breaking down all that's untrue
It remains a lifelong learning
For each of our hearts and souls
Stilling the inner critic
And ignoring the outer world
Life is complicated for everyone
We do what we believe is best
It doesn't always help us
Or the people that we meet
Kindness is who we truly are
Pure souls often snowed down
By debris from outside and in
Trying to unlearn indoctrination from all
No matter what happens on your path
Be kind to yourself first
And once you're at peace with yourself
You can show kindness to the world
We are all decent in our souls
We are love and light within
It sometimes just takes time
To reveal the purity and truth
