Be an encourager, gentle and kind,
The world has enough voices that wound the mind.
Enough fingers pointing, enough words that break,
Enough silent smiles that are painfully fake.
When someone stumbles, weary and small,
Be the hand that lifts, not the wall.
A simple word, a caring tone,
Can turn a heart that feels alone.
Critics shout loudly, tearing dreams apart,
But encouragers whisper hope to the heart.
They see the struggle behind each tear,
And say, “I’m with you, don’t fear.”
So choose to uplift, choose to inspire,
Light a spark where there’s fading fire.
For one kind soul, one hopeful plea,
Can change a life quietly
