What unifies the world

Post by peter danielsen »

"looked through the papers
makes you wanna cry
nobody cares if the people
live or die"

How about making a list of things that could unify the world, the genders, the cultures, the religions. I don´t know but it really seems that many of us are engaged in a project of putting light on our own rights, our own feelings, our own position. Lets try not ending up in separeted spaces, with no one but our own kind to talk and live with.

"I know you said you´d meet me
meet me at the store
but I can't buy it baby
I can't buy it any more"

Cohen once said that we live in a land of confrontation, and we do, but he also talks about the unified heart, thats what we must seek

Pure love is the only unifier, it cuts through religions like a pillar of fire.

Well said.....the problem is that you can't really talk to everybody and at some point it isn't even worth trying anymore. At the end it's better to just carry on doing your own thing and not give a damn. It would be nice if people could be shocked out of their complacency that only the way they think must be the right way or the only way, but it doesnt happen very often.
