| 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 be no hope, dare
to find some.
When you’re 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 heal.
When another is lost, dare to help
them find the way.
When a friend falls, dare to be the
first to extend a hand.
When you cross paths 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’ve done your best.
Dare to be the best you can –
At all times, Dare to be!
— Steve Maraboli
