Those people

How do they do it?

Live like no one’s watching

Like the world is safe and kind

Other people are

**Always**

Watching

So how do they do those things?

How are they so friendly,

Helpful

Cheerful

Sweet

When no doubt, something in their life

Is going horribly wrong?

How do they not snap?

Break under the pressure of society?

How do they strive through persecutors?

How do they **live**, just **live** fully?

At first I thought it was religion

And I suppose that plays part into it

But some people don’t believe

In a higher power

So, how do _they_ do it?

I’ve studied, I’ve watched, I’ve listened

And I’ve found it out:

It’s a choice, a choice to live that way, to believe that everything _will_ be okay, even when it’s not. And I realized, that even though kindness is seen as weak—those people are the strongest of us all.

I wish I could be as such.

Do you?

Or do you want to stay hidden, unimportant, and comfortable in your society ridden coach?
