Be Addicted

The Right Kind of Addiction

Be Addicted

By all means

be addicted

but be addicted

not to the terrible

or to the deplorable

but to the adorable.

Be addicted to

the beauty of your child's laughter

or the great things they do

thereafter.

Be addicted to

the tremendous amount of stars

in that nighttime sky

making you want to fly

just to see how small you are.

Be addicted to

helping people

it doesn't matter what medium

it doesn't matter what space

realize your life has no premium

run with joy that race.

Be addicted to

(what else?)

making the world a better place

let the bad addiction

be gone

from your world make it totally erase.
