I was out running along Mullett Lake this morning… listening to the lake clap against the shore with Loons’s singing off the in distance (something I have come to cherish). I was so moved and blessed… I couldn’t help be thankful.<\/p>\n
In the midst of that feeling… I found myself thinking about an image I saw of a man on a bridge… he seemed so desperate and alone. I also thought of my mother in law and many like her… aging and alone. Thankfully we’re now here to help and assist her, but there are countless aging folks out there without help.<\/p>\n
I also found myself thinking about our world in general… so selfish, so jaded… vengeful, and hateful to one another. We’ve lost our ability to love and care for one another. It’s been bugging me all day. So… I wrote a song…<\/p>\n
Try a Little Kindness<\/b><\/p>\n
There\u2019s a man on a bridge
\nHead in his hands
\nLooks like he\u2019s had a rough day
\nPeople walk by
\nWithout a glance
\nAnd not a word to say<\/p>\n
But this could be the day\u2026<\/p>\n
Try a little kindness
\nBe compassionate
\nLet love lead the way
\nTry a little kindness
\nBe compassionate
\nLet love lead the way
\nBe a helping hand today<\/p>\n
There\u2019s a lady at home
\nScared and all alone
\nHer family have gone away
\nThe neighbors all know
\nBut they take care for their own
\nAnd choose to walk away<\/p>\n
But this could be the day\u2026<\/p>\n
Try a little kindness
\nBe compassionate
\nLet love lead the way
\nTry a little kindness
\nBe compassionate
\nLet love lead the way
\nAnd be a helping hand today<\/p>\n
