For what it's worth....

I decided to create a blog where I will post passages from various works of art,music,poetry,speeches etc. which echo through time as words of wisdom.Words that can be used as guidance in turbulent times such as those in which we now live.After all,those who forget their past and learn not from the lessons left from their forefathers,are bound to perish in oblivion.All you need to do my friends is read them and think about them

I will start this rubric with a verse from apl.de.ap from the B.E.P.,performed in their 2003 single "Where Is The Love"

Apl.de.Ap


"I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm gettin' older, y'all, people get colder
Most of us only care about money makin'
Selfishness got us followin' the wrong direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what they see in the cinema
Yo', whatever happened to the values of humanity
Whatever happened to the fairness in equality
Instead of spreading love we spreading animosity
Lack of understanding, leading lives away from unity
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' down
There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin' under
Gotta keep my faith alive till love is found"


So ask yourself!
