It begins with a thought
That enters the mind
Moments of thoughtfulness
With the time we can find
It's thinking of others
And what can we do
To make a difference
By just being you
Small acts of kindness
Like sharing a smile
The caring gestures
Of going the extra mile
Its the little things
That mean so very much
It's the love we can give
In each life we touch
Like holding a door open
Letting people ahead of you
Buying a cup of coffee
Giving a compliment or two
Don't pass up the opportunities
Or let them slip away
Take advantage of the moment
We only have today
