Look What I Found

Look what I found when I opened my eyes
I found a world much like me
Though we may share different views
We all want to see the same things

Look what I found when I opened my mind
I found we all think much the same
In this world we think that it's time
For all of mankind to make a change

Look what I found when I opened my heart
All the cares of this world
I never knew what those cares were
Until the day I opened my heart

Look what I found when this I realized
We all want happiness and a chance to be free
Look what I found when this I realized
The world's pretty much like me

So very true Mike; whether we're liberal or conservative; democrat or republican we all want happiness and freedom! (I don't know about commies though!) Another great thought provoker Mike!~Che :)
