Just Be Kind.

I wrote this song at the start of the pandemic. It summarizes my philosophy of life at this stage of my life.

Since there is a lot of conflict, war, and oppression going on in Ukraine and Russia right now, I wanted to send some love and kindness out into the world.

Just Be Kind (lyrics)

by Shawn Casselberry

I don't mind

if you're Muslin, Jew, or Christian just be kind

Don't preach to me

Your words are fine but love is what we need

Gay or straight

I love you just the same

No time for hate

Tear down these walls

And build a bigger table

Make room for all

Just be kind

Just be kind

You think you're right

You judge because you're hurt I know what it's like

You've been depressed

It's ok, you're not alone, we're all a mess

You are loved

You're perfect as you are

You are enough

Open your mind

no one has all the truth

so just be kind

Just be kind

Just be kind

Just be kind

We're all in this together

Just be kind

We can all make this world better

Just be kind

We are sisters, we are brothers

Just be kind

We are fathers, we are mothers

Just be kind

No matter what your gender

Just be kind

So we can all make our hearts tender

Just be kind

Let's be friends we are all neighbors

Just be kind

And let love drive our behavior

Just be kind

We're all in this together

Just be kind

We can all make this world better

Just be kind
