WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS
 
 
...more people who care...

...more people who love...

...more people who try to help...

...more people who would rather
have peace, not war...

...more people who aren't afraid
to stand out in a crowd...

...more people who look for the good
in people instead of the bad...

...more people who accept others for
what they are, and not what they aren't...

...more people who appreciate the finer
things in life - good friends and family...

...more people who look at things in a positive light
and use that to create an attitude to live by...

...more people who go out and actively seek their
happiness rather than waiting for it to fall in their laps...

...more people who smile - the smile you see on another's
face is how you will react when you see it - it's contagious...

....more people who hug others - the very feeling of a hug will
spread warmth through you - we all crave it and it's free...

...more people to call others up and say hi there......
just calling to tell you I miss you and that I care...
 
IN THIS WORLD OF BITTERNESS
AND PESSIMISM...  WE ALL NEED
TO MAKE THE EFFORT TO RISE ABOVE
THOSE TRAITS...  SO THAT WE
DON'T BECOME WHAT WE HATE...
AND BECOME STRONG, POSITIVE PEOPLE...
EMBRACING ALL AROUND US AND
SPREADING THOSE FEELINGS...
