This may be considered a cop-out as far as crafting daily articles goes, but as Leslie Gore once reminded us back in 1963, “It is my party and I’ll cry if I want to.”
I learned long ago that songs are like speeches (presentations). Everybody interprets the same words differently based on their current mindset and position in life.
These words sung by Tim McGraw strike a chord with me and, rather than conjure up for the umpteenth time a message worth reading according to me, I will just piggy-back off of Timmy boy today and see if this boat floats.
The tune is titled Humble And Kind and reminds us of what is important in life. Perhaps today, more than ever before, we all can take this suggestion to heart.
You know there’s a light that glows by the front door
Don’t forget the keys under the mat
Childhood stars shine
Always stay humble and kind
Go to church cause your mama says to
Visit grandpa every chance that you can
It won’t be a waste of time
Always stay humble and kind
Hold the door say please say thank you
Don’t steal don’t cheat and don’t lie
I know you got mountains to climb but
Always stay humble and kind
When the dreams you’re dreaming come to you
When the work you put in is realized
Let yourself feel the pride but
Always stay humble and kind
Don’t expect a free ride from no one
Don’t hold a grudge or a chip and here’s why
Bitterness keeps you from flying
Always stay humble and kind
Know the difference between sleeping with someone
And sleeping with someone you love
“I love you” ain’t no pick up line so
Always stay humble and kind
Hold the door say please say thank you
Don’t steal don’t cheat and don’t lie
I know you got mountains to climb but
Always stay humble and kind
When those dreams you’re dreaming come to you
When the work you put in is realized
Let yourself feel the pride but
Always stay humble and kind
When it’s hot eat a root beer popsicle
Shut off the A/C and roll the windows down
Let that summer sun shine
Always stay humble and kind
Don’t take for granted the love this life gives you
When you get where you’re going don’t forget turn back around
Help the next one in line
Always stay humble and kind
