hero

There's a riot going on
And there's hunger in our midst.
Some people can't go on.
Some people call it quits.

When freedom is not the word
You'll find on Earth there's hell.
And U know one man saved the world
And he's in your heart as well.

(Chorus) Everybody's waiting for the hero, when the hero is in everyone.
Everybody's waiting for the hero, when the hero is in everyone.

A man is sleeping on the street
Because he has no place to live.
A millionaire is eating meat.
How come we're not more sensitive?

And when abundance is for the few
That's where the hunger lies.
Responsibility rests on U.
So keep your head up to the sky.

thankful

it's that time of year again.
when it's easy to pick out the haves and have nots.

Guess that's a good thing for all of us--at least you know where to sit at dinner parties.

funny how things change so quickly. making my thankful for list has become condensed and honest. leaving space on the other hand for after thought.

You know if you made the 2008 list.
Most of "the list" deals with the basics-
bills paid.
lilly
house and car
job

well--there you go.
