We all need a little of these

two words;

C is for caring,

O is for opportunities for this,

M is for multifacited,

P is for patience,

A is for active listening,

S is for security in our thoughts,

S is for feeling safe,

I is for individual,

O is for organizing one's thoughts and wishes,

N is for notwithstanding what others share,

and

U is for understanding,

N is for needs of others,

D is for dedication to help,

E is for educating one another,

R is for remembering,

S is for steady as you go,

T is for taking time,

A is for answer seeking,

N is for nature and nurture,

D is for daring dreams to have,

I is for inquisitive to finding answers.

N is for now,

G is for granting what we need or helping others.

This is what the world needs.
