There’s so much to think about,

So much more

Than videos, snapchats and the football score.

While we’re out getting groceries,

The man across the street

Would give up his coat to have something to eat.

It’s time to look up, get out of your shell

Quit being so blind to the need that is there.

Wake up, look out the window, and take just a peek

Outside you’ll find it’s not pretty or neat,

So try something new,

Switch your view from yourself to those around you.

We can’t change the past,

But we can change ourselves.

Focus on others, I dare you.
