Extending a Helping Hand

I love lighthouses. I love how they shine their lights for ships to say, "Watch out for the rocks!" The warning is such a nice thing to do. Just think, if the lighthouse wasn't there the ship could crash! Sometimes I feel like a lighthouse. I tell people what I know and hope it helps them. My philosophy is that if I know it then I'll tell it. Why would I keep it to myself and make it harder on them? What if they never learn what I knew? I tell what I know and get off the hook.

I believe that anyone who speaks up is a lighthouse. (Logically speaking, they spoke up and possibly saved someone from harm.) Friends do that-they say helpful and honest things because they care. I think to myself, 'Why not care and be nice?'
