Right now is the right time to read this rhyme

Yeah, right now is the right time to ask yourself this question…

“Am I doing what I’m doing right now because it makes me happy…or am I doing what I’m doing because I’d like to help someone else be happy.”

Either one is OK. But it’s really so much better and so much fun to help someone else.

If you only look at what makes you happy everyday, you can become selfish. And being selfish means you’ll spend even more time on what makes you happy everyday. And then you’re stuck in a circle that’s like a clock. You go ’round and ’round but never get anywhere.

So, right now is the right time to go find someone who needs a smile.

Or right after you read the short poem below. And go ahead and give them two or three smiles. If you do, they might even give you one or two back. And that makes a circle that looks like a wheel. It spins ’round and ’round and goes wherever you steer. So, steer clear.

This Minute Is

This minute is your minute.
Go ahead and jump in it.
One sparkle and one twinkle
One snowflake and one sprinkle.

Be sunny and be cheerful.
Skip worried and skip fearful.
Keep smiling and keep living.
This minute is for giving. © 2013 TF

Right This Minute

Tony Funderburk Posted on May 13, 2013 by TonyJuly 5, 2026
Right this minute Tony Funderburk's writing for kids because they're awesome.

Right this minute ask yourself this question…

“Am I doing what I’m doing right now because it makes me happy…or am I doing what I’m doing because I’d like to help someone else be happy.”

Either one is OK, but it’s really so much better and so much fun to help someone else. If you only look at what makes you happy everyday, you can become selfish. And being selfish means you’ll spend even more time on what makes you happy everyday. And then you’re stuck in a circle that’s like a clock…it goes ’round and ’round but never gets anywhere.

Now…right this minute…or right after you read the short poem below, go find someone who needs a smile. And give them two or three smiles. If you do, they might even give you one or two back. And that makes a circle that looks like a wheel…it spins ’round and ’round and goes wherever you steer. So, steer clear.

This minute is your minute.
