If I Could Change…

If I could change one thing about the world, it would be that we had peace and everyone loves every one. Christofer Drew has a song called "Love is My Weapon" the lyrics go like this, " Hey everybody take a look around put your money where your mouth is and take your eyes off the ground we've got a hard day coming if we cant work out all the little problems that were fighting about." Yeah i see a whole lot of truth in that.

In the song he goes on to say how can we start the healing process if we cant even stop the problem. It's crazy true because how are we as humans supposed to get along when there is that one person who messes up all the progress. I agree with Chris, we fight but what for?

I think the world needs a big hug. It's time for change, a good change. I think its good that we have people willing to defend us don't get me wrong, but i would rather every body just be happy.
