I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children’s laughter remind us how we used to be...
When you follow your heart despite your head terminal stupidity will ensue...
What do I know though, I’m just a middle ages curmudgeon.
We are the world
We are the children...
I’d like the buy the world a Coke...
Ebony and ivory...
Feel good stuff like that is just that, feel good. We have a generation raised on it.
Have you ever seen the movie, The Pianist? I’m concerned that our culture is about to learn the hard lesson the woman in that movie learned in this scene (from here: http://www.imsdb.com/scripts/Pianist,-The.html):
EXT. WAREHOUSE YARD - DAWN
Still quite dark. The Szpilmans and about twenty others
lined up under lights shining on them from a couple of
German vehicles.
The NCO goes along the line, making a selection, using his
pistol to prod people into moving. When he gets to the
Szpilmans he selects Henryk and Halina. Then, he turns to
those who are left:
NCO
The rest of you get dressed then
report back here. Bring your
belongings. Fifteen kilos only.
A YOUNG WOMAN
Where are you taking us?
The NCO turns his pistol on the young woman and shoots her
through the head. He marches off while she lies on the
ground with blood spurting out of her.
