GO!

 Why wait until tomorrow
Why pontificate
Why procrastinate
Why cogitate
Your life is a forward journey
Rarely is there a chance
Or an opportunity
To go back
To return
To walk the exact same path again
Never retreat from a decision
Do not retire to tomorrow
Never surrender your will

Regret helps no one
There is no point in
What ifs’
If onlys’
It’s just too late
The moment has gone
The moment you let go
The moment of truth
When you came up wanting
When you dithered
When you couldn’t commit

In acts of love
In acts of kindness
Seize the moment
Cradle in both hands
Embrace the opportunity
To rise above
To be better than
Then expected norm
Do the unexpected
Show love and kindness
In everything you do
With everyone you meet

Imagine a world
Where that was the norm
Imagine a world
Where love was available to all
Imagine a world
Where kindness was automatic
Imagine a world
Where humanity actually meant
Something good
Something worthwhile
A source of happiness
A source of love

It all starts today
It all starts with you and me
It all starts with an act of love
It all starts with an act of kindness
Don’t wait for me
Don’t wait to receive
Before you give
Just smile and give
Keep smiling and giving
It will return to you
It all starts here
It all starts now

Ready?
Steady?
GO!
