Just Because I am Me

​Just because a situation is tense, I don’t have to give up my calm
Just because somebody is in despair, I don’t have to let go of hope
Just because it is peak hour traffic, I don’t have to rush
Just because there is hatred in the world, I don’t have to lose my love for life
Just because there is war in the world, I don’t have to lose my peace
Just because I am me, I can be peaceful, joyous and loving – just the way I was created
Just because I am me, I can spread hope, love, trust, joy and peace - to help make the world just as it is meant to be
