"compassion is the fire that burns the hurt that pains the soul"

[janmagkar]

These are still the times. Love your loved ones.

Really, the job of a musician is to bring us all together to unite in something we relate to and most of us songwriters are doing this because we really want to change the world, not just because we quite like singing. I'm glad Joan is amongst them. If you like this, you might also like the song "Has The Whole World Come Undone?" by Abi Moore - just search in Google to find it!

@bosyeux2 , though your statement is all too true, I believe what others are saying here is that if human suffering in this or any future time can be alleviated only compassion and love will accomplish it. Therefore, we believe that this song and/or anything that can move us to express these things toward our fellowkind need to be kept constant. Would you have us or would you yourself withhold compassion from the suffering simply because it has existed in other times? I think not.

it's an interesting song, but do you all truly believe these times are so different than others? death and destruction have always been hovering in the trees. human history is replete with such fragility--it just tends to get lost in the mythologizing.
