Step Outside

Step Outside

Step outside, look at the sun and realise

It’s got one job, and it can do it better than you

Hold your head high, as you watch the birds head for the sky

Without their wings, you can’t fly.

Step outside, look at the sun and realise

It has its time to shine, and then it rolls away

And it can’t draw like you can, and it can’t cry like you can

“Everyone has at least one talent.

Even if they think they don’t have a talent, they will have at least one

So they shouldn’t feel sad.

Talents can be:

Finding nice leaves; walking far; being interested in things or being good at describing things.

I think one of my main talents is laughing…and annoying my brother.”

“People have gifts like being kind, happy, smart, good at sport or good at music.

It sometimes looks like some people have a lot of gifts and some people don’t have many

But really, we all have the same number, but some gifts are just wrapped in more layers

Or need more time to be put together.”

And it can’t jump for joy, and wish that it was something else like you can

Step outside, look at the sun, and realise that it’s content

And gathers strength doing what it does best.
