making the world

this is a poem i received from Go-Gratitude, an organization promoting positivity:

"There is a secret
that almost nobody knows.

I will tell it to you
if you promise
to tell someone else:

The world isn't quite finished yet,
it isn't quite complete.

It's still
being
made.

Everywhere you look
and everywhere you listen,
someone or something

is helping
to make the world."

~ excerpt, Making the World by Douglas Wood.


the smallest thing, like a smile or a kind word, helps to make a better world. what will you contribute?
