Guide the young towards kindness
Guide the young towards kindness, help them to find their way,
Give them your compassion as they stumble through a day.
Let them know that life is never as bad as it seems,
That through the darkest skies, they can still follow their dreams.
Teach the young that giving will help build a better life,
That the sharing of kindness, gets others through their strife.
That within that sharing, their own lives will start to grow,
And that the kindness of others, they will start to know.
Show the young how they can help the world around them thrive,
That with their thoughtfulness, they can help others survive.
That with their kindness and support, the wounds they can mend,
And with their acts of kindness, turn strangers into friends.
Tell the young how kindness will always find a way through,
That In the darkest times, kindness brings a brighter view.
That darkness will fade and a better world they will find,
That when they have no idea what to do, just be kind.
