Kindness

Sometimes it feels like people have forgotten
how to be kind to one another
The goal seems to be to get through life
at as fast a pace as possible and collect things
I do wish that more people would remember
that they are human and that humanity needs kindness
from others to thrive and succeed in life
Life is not a contest to see who can have the latest
and most expensive clothes, cars, or home
Life is a journey where those you travel with are
your encouragers and fellow humans who need to
see your light and joy in the form of being kind
