Let’s all get together for goodness’ sake and scare cancer away,
Alzheimer’s, MS, CS, et al, with it. And three cheers for good works!

Good Works

If good works could spread like cancer,
Wouldn’t that heal the world?
What if we all could spread niceness?
What if we all could love?

If good works could spread like cancer,
Everyone could be a dancer,
If we could all sing the same song,
Harmony would grow strong.

What if we could give out goodness?
Cancer holds the secret,
It knows just how to pass things on,
Cancer knows where to spawn.

What if goodness, love and kindness
Could kill off all the hurt?
What if we could learn from cancer?
It knows just how to share.

All good works are works of kindness:
Kindness is contagious,
And if practice makes for perfect,
Perfect your own good works.

What if good works spread like cancer?
What if we all agreed?
Would cancer then give up the fight,
Prove good works the stronger right?

If goodness could learn from cancer
And then infect us all,
We could start a health pandemic…
What if, for goodness sake?

Source Forgotten

I was reading something the other day that inspired this, but like all my greatest ideas, the something reference self destroyed. But what if cancer’s strongest strength got turned on him and we turned his strength into his greatest weakness?

Well, this all might be very simplistic, but if science is doing that, then they are on track to gaining the upper hand on cancer, and that means hope for the rest of us: as in conquering Alzheimer’s is within reach. And all the other scourges.

If only.

Give generously to the research society fighting the disease in your family.
