Random Acts of Kindness

Through a random act of kindness
A stranger touched my soul
And now I behold the mindset
Of achieving that same goal

I felt a reward that was like no other 
Through a random act of kindness
I passed forward onto another
Who, in turn, also felt blessed

And, inside, I must confess
I was hoping that they, too, would feel the need
Through a random act of kindness
To help another to succeed

And so, the momentum still remains
From creating so much happiness
As another link adds to the chain
Through a random act of kindness

Sometimes we just do it. It's good to just do it. When it's a part of you then it's easier. Then you don't have to think :) I like it, Joe
