Be Someone's Reason
by Dan Krauth '16

Be someone's reason for believing in the kindness of strangers.
Be someone's reason that their day turned around.
Be someone's reason they fall asleep with a smile on their face.
Be someone's reason for looking forward to getting out of bed in the morning.
Be someone's reason for feeling safe in this chaotic world of ours.
Be someone's reason for smiling when no one's around.
Be someone's reason for believing in themselves.
Be someone's reason for abandoning unhealthy, self-destructive behavior.
Be someone's reason for believing they're worth more than they ever thought they could be.
Be someone's reason for being happier than they ever thought possible.
Be someone's reason for finding peace on a quiet Sunday afternoon.
Be someone's reason for appreciating the cool sea air, the warm sunlight, the picturesque blue sky.
Be someone's reason for laughing.
Be someone's reason for dancing.
Be someone's reason for creating art, music, poetry.
"Be someone's reason for believing in the goodness of humanity"
