How Can People Be So Heartless?

[Misty_Morning]

How can people be so heartless
How can people be so cruel
Easy to be hard
Easy to be cold

How can people have no feelings
How can they ignore their friends
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no

And especially people
Who care about strangers
Who care about evil
And social injustice
Do you only
Care about the bleeding crowd?
How about a needing friend?
I need a friend

How can people be so heartless
You know I'm hung up on you
Easy to give in
Easy to help out

And especially people
Who care about strangers
Who say they care about social injustice
Do you only
Care about the bleeding crowd
How about a needing friend?
I need a friend

How can people have no feelings
How can they ignore their friends
Easy to be hard
Easy to be cold
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no






I heard these lyrics as a child...and they have always stuck with me.

It is soooo easy to say no.




In this time of giving, I challenge you to say ....YES



Please.....just say "YES", not just today, but tomorrow.

Shout it loud and proud.

(Pine Ridge is my year 'round thing, but we're already working on plans to expand the youth center on the reserve - my time, experience, etc., is voluntary - so that it will be more of a "people's" center. It's named after Kelly's son)

I have always loved that song... from Hair.... (along with "Frank Mills").... as it touches something.... The idea that love and care and concern... start at home.... Kindness and charity begin with those closest to you.....

There is currently a movie out in India about the troubled life of Ghandi's son and their failed relationship together... Here was the father of a whole nation... and (apparently) could not be a father for his own son when he was needed....

Anyway... thank you for reminding me about it....

Another song from Hair:

Sodomy
Fellatio
Cunnilingus
Pederasty

Father, why do these words sound so nasty?

Masturbation
Can be fun
Join the holy orgy
Kama Sutra
Everyone!​

I heard this live the first Thursday in October. Three Dog Night was here for the furniture market. I helped load the vans at the transport staging area to move them to the performance. They still sound great after all these years.
