With Yourself You Ought To Begin

If you wish to make the World better to live in
Then perhaps with yourself  you ought to begin 
Though you may win admirers when medals and prizes you win
The power to do good only comes from within
Though you may win admirers for the good things for yourself you do
The good things you do for others says more about you
Than any form of personal success
Though acts of generosity and kindness many never impress
Those who help people in need of helping every day
Out of the kindness of their hearts not for recognition or pay
Are really good people in truth one can say
And for making a better world to live in their part does play
It is not the good things you do for yourself but the good things for others you do
That tells of the worth of the person that is you.
