What do you remember about your Kindergarten year?
Playgrounds, snack time, the fact that monsters were your greatest fear?
Looking back on it now, I didn’t know what was going on…
But of one thing I was sure, I wanted all the needles GONE.
One minute, there I was, as happy as can be.
The next I was in the hospital awaiting my turn to be free.
And at 5 years old it’s kind of hard to comprehend
That at one point or another, every life has to end.
And more difficult than that?
It was my life that was in jeopardy, right off the bat.
But I'm here now, staring at my laptop screen,
curious as to how people can be so mean
when so many people less fortunate than they,
would kill for a life like theirs, even if for a day.
So today, if you can, just for a second or two,
do something for someone other than you.
Just give someone a reason to smile,
or make someone's day a little brighter for awhile.
Cause I promise, if you do,
you'll feel a feeling that changes you.
A feeling of helping, of hoping, or caring,
of laughter, of dancing, of praying or sharing.
And it will light up your heart with all sorts of glee
as well as the heart that you've touched with your deed.
