Dare To Be

When a new day begins,

Dare to smile gratefully.

When there is darkness,

Dare to be the first to shine a light.

When there is injustice,

Dare to be the first to condemn it.

When something seems difficult,

Dare to do it anyway.

When life seems to beat you down,

Dare to fight back.

When there seems to no hope,

Dare to find some.

When you are feeling tired,

Dare to keep going.

When times are tough,

Dare to be tougher.

When love hurts you,

Dare to love again.

When someone is hurting,

Dare to help them find the way.

When a friend falls,

Dare to be the first to extend a hand.

When you cross path with another,

Dare to make them smile.

When you feel great,

Dare to help someone else feel great too.

When the day has ended,

Dare to feel as you have done your best.

Date to be the best you can-

At all times, dare to be!
