Illuminate

Some people are sad,
Some people are angry,
Some others are joyful,
Some others are positively hopeful.

All we can do, in a world that's divided,
Is being kind to everybody.
Being kind to our neighbour,
Being kind to our enemy.

And if you really think love is the answer
Start practicing it now.
Stop dividing yourself from your environment,
Stop dividing your feelings for the humans around you.

Today, and every day from today on,
Be kind to everybody,
Be kind to anybody.
Behave,
Practice unconditional love,
For any of the candidates,
For any of your parents,
For any of your brothers,
For any of your friends and lovers,
For any of the passers-by that give you a smile,
For any of the passers-by that don't give you a smile,
For any of the cashiers at the supermarket,
For any driver that gives you the middle finger,
For anyone in a rush that jumps the queue,
For anyone.

Because if you don't like hate,
Then why do you hate?
Hate puts you in a stall,
It creates walls,
And it grows bigger and bigger around you and bigger and wider and bigger and wider and bigger and wider inside you and bigger and wider around you.

But if you're angry, anger makes you react.
And if love propels your anger,
Love will become bigger and bigger around you and bigger and wider and bigger and wider and bigger and wider inside you and bigger and brighter around you.

So today, don't hate, and never again from today.
Just love,
And believe that anybody can make the right choice.
Anybody has a light inside.
Your job is to look for that light and make it brighter with your own light.
