CIVILITY
Contradictory beliefs are part of our daily lives
If we all believed and thought the same, there would be no spice
Venture to seek out those whose views may differ
Invest in understanding what makes others think the way they do, and then by
Learning from each other through dialogue, we’ll set a better path
If we make the effort to actively listen, rather than ridicule
Time will accept us as equals without need for hatred, and
Yesterday’s ignorance will not prevail.
GIVE BACK
Gather your thoughts and listen closely to the world outside
Invest in others as you would yourself; savour their gifts
Venture to new places never before discovered
Experience all that is creative, especially those unlike you.
Become part of a growing community where ideas abound,
And flourish together in the light of sharing and reciprocation
Contribute to the successes of others around you, and you will
Know your day has been spent to the best of its potential.
