Believing...when there is no reason whatsoever to do so.
Giving...because it's the only thing you can do.
Hearing...when no words have been spoken.
Speaking...without saying a word.
Touching...someone every day, some way.
Reaching...higher than you know you can reach.
Seeking...for the spark that ignites the soul.
Searching...always for a better way.
Finding...the good in all you meet.
Seeing...the world through the eyes of a child.
Speaking...words that build someone up.
Breaking...down the walls which divide us.
Hoping...to help someone along the way.
Daring...to try.
Allowing...yourself to make mistakes.
Helping...when noboday asked for it.
Trying...to just get through one more day.
Smiling...just for the sake of it.
Writing...a line that will be remembered.
Stopping...because no one ever does.
Caring...about everyone and everything.
Staying...after everyone has gone.
Smelling...all the flowers you can.
Making...a way where there is no way.
Falling...down and always getting back up.
Loving...ALL THERE IS!

Superb
Ah, 'tis a fine write with noble sentiments. I doubt if anyone could seriously disagree with all of your statements. You expressed yourself quite well, indeed. -
Unique
I like the unconventionality of this prose. You were able to capture what it truly is to be good person. I guess our job is to strive to do each of these things every day that we are given.
