Each Life Affects Another

We may not always realize
That everything we do,

Affects our lives
But touches others too.

For a little bit of thoughtfulness
That shows someone you care,

Creates a ray of sunshine
For both of you to share.

Yes, every time you offer
Someone a helping hand?
Every time you have

A kind and gentle word to give?
You help find beauty
In this precious life we live.

For happiness brings happiness
And loving ways bring love;

And giving is the treasure
That contentment is made of.
