Kindness

I can't stand when people are rude to other people. I believe that everyone has rights and everyone should have freedom to say what they think but when someone puts someone else down, it hurts me inside. I hate seeing the way people look when they are shot down and ignored. I always feel so bad when multiple people are talking to me and I have to shut out the others and focus on one. Everyone is a person with feelings and most people want to feel cared about.

Why do we put other people down? It's so discouraging to know you don't have a voice or to feel like you don't matter. As a daughter of God I can see that the people around me have a need to be loved and cared for. I can see that they have feelings, desires and dreams. I can see that they want to be included and that they are children of God.

We're all royalty. Why don't we treat each other the way we should be treating them? If we could see their full potential would we see them different? Would they see themselves differently? Would words and actions be changed. I like to think that the more we learn and understand the more our opinions of each other will change and the more open minded we will be.

Kind Words

By Megan Johnson

Let us speak kind words to each other,

If we do, no contention we'll cause,

Kind words, each sister and brother,

Then the spirit will return as it was,

All of us can do better you see,

Kind words make others feel better,

So let us not speak sarcastically,

And be kind every single letter!

Sometimes we tease just a little,

But sometimes it might not feel nice,

If we stop teasing so much it'll,

Help when breaking the ice!!!

So when a moment comes up,

Don't say something that may be rude,

Instead of push-down, push-up!!

Even if you don't think they find it crude.

So to be builders, we'll all try harder,

And then happiness can be found,

Yes happiness together!

And say kind words all around.

Everyone needs love and happiness. Everyone needs and longs to be understood. 

Don't deny them of that.
