Words - Observe and Honor them...Give them Meaning...

The words of Bob Marley's song War cry for peace as does where these words first flowed from, Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia.  These words were spoken in 1963 at the U.N. Conference in NY City.  It cries for equality.  It cries against war which is everywhere.  The fight is for good over evil....not black against white, nor white against black....but the fight against ignorance or tolerance but a fight for acceptance and peace. Singing about war tells the story of violence and blood shed...but I believe Marley's words spoke of a war internal in his heart as well as others who find it hard to understand why everyone is not equal, why can't the world love one another.  I felt that his words were not singing about what has happened but what is happening and continues to happen...even though the world thinks they have made progress....it has not.
