Better To ..... Rather Than .....

Better To ..... Rather Than .....

A Poem by Val Dohren


Better to make someone smile
Rather than make them cry

Better to feed someone happiness
Rather than feed their misery

Better to always give
Rather than always take

Better to dance in the rain
Rather than weep under the sun

Better to pay a compliment
Rather than to criticise

Better to be humble
Rather than be arrogant

Better to kiss someone
Rather than slap them in the face

Better to take care of wildlife
Rather than let them perish

Better to see beauty
Rather than to see ugliness

Better to forgive
Rather than to hold grudges

Better to catch the arrows
Rather than release them

Better to feed the land
Rather than let it become barren

Better to help those in need
Rather than turn away

Better to be thoughtful
Rather than thoughtless

Better to celebrate life
Rather than complain

Better to see your glass half full
Rather than as half empty

Better to look up to the stars
Rather than look down into the mud

BETTER TO LOVE
RATHER THAN TO HATE
