The Power of Other People's Words
Rarely do we inspire ourselves
We don't say or write things that
make us want to do better
or be better.
But the power of other people's words
can cause us to stop and pause,
reflecting on parts of our lives
we have long forgot.
The power of other people's words
can inspire us to change our lives
or work to change the lives
of others.
The power of other people's words
can demand we take action
to vocalize our anger, or terror
or dismay.
The power of other people's words
make me want to do better,
to be better.
That is the power of other people's words!
