True Love

Life is cruel
we win some
but more oft we lose

I do not get to choose what my legacy will be
will I be remembered for the life I have led
or for the way I die

Of all of mankind's virtues
love is the greatest
love freely, without restraint
never selfishly withhold a smile

For your kindness may be the only light in someone's day
You may be the only one who speaks in the grocery store
Kindness is free
So give it lavishly
