People Are People

PEOPLE ARE PEOPLE People are people They all have a mind Though some are cruel Others are kind Some live in fantasies Some live in dreams No one is perfect You know what I mean Race and religion Bring us to war Those are some things I'd prefer to ignore So if you agree Then stand by my side Follow my path Don't run and hide Because people are people Even the blind aren't blind So forget all who are cruel And remember all who are kind

Such a positive message, and especially when understanding the context of this poem - it is something we should all do when cruel things happen to good people. There's plenty of bad, but that doesn't mean we have to dwell on it an give the bad power. Positivism is power in itself. Beautiful work. There are plenty of good and kind people to remember and learn from. Always, Laura
