Everything Still Matters

Pleasantries still matter,

please and thank you, a language that's still spoken.

Acknowledging others still matters,

a nod, a smile, a gesture that's still felt deeply.

Holding the door open for another still matters,

a kindness that's still contagious.

Calling people back still matters,

a courtesy that's still appreciated.

Being kind to people still matters,

a compassion that's still needed.

Reaching out to friends still matters,

a love that's still worth sharing.

Doing your best to love your family still matters,

a bond that's still worth strengthening.

Taking care of yourself still matters,

a life that's still worth living.

Everything still matters.
