Heal the world

Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.

~William Shakespeare

'tis my first time to watch this video. The message is so profound, leaving me an enormous feeling of grief and inspiration. I can't help but to smile when i thought of the receding troops of the US going home from Iraq. Nowhere is the war to end but that step would significantly make a difference.

Look around what's happening all around us, it's as if love has vanished so sudden giving the world to succumb in a wounded state.

With the intensifying recession hitting all over the world, it seems a hopeless journey. Why do all good things come to an end? Like happiness always gone too soon. It's a fact of life, i reckon.

But humming the song of the great Michael Jackson somehow brings me back to a sane reality that each human beings' love can make a difference. That the light of a single candle is not only serving itself but creates a bridge, a way, a connection to light the other so many candles unlit. Paving the way to a brighter atmosphere, illuminating chaos and darkness that seem to envelope this ever changing world of ours.

Come August 29th marks the birthday of Michael, it has been more than a year since his passing but reminiscing his history never faltered me to get a lump in my throat especially when i listen to his songs. "Heal the world, make it a better place.. for you and for me and the entire human race..."

Each day that passes, may our candles of light shine... with empathy, with compassion, with hope, and with love. Make a lil' space, make a better place...
