Waiting on the World to Change

A new day beckons...looking back I have so many memories...bad and good ones. Sometimes we feel like queens and kings, sometimes like jerks or bitches...its funny the way our mind works. We do or feel things which we know are not so right or cool.

At the end of the year everybody asks 'what have you accomplished?’ This seems the most apt or logical Q but I don’t want to answer that anymore. Instead I want to ring in the new year silently sans anticipation, sans expectations, and sans foolhardiness …easier said then done?
:)


Happy New Year!
Waiting On the World to Change
John Mayer
Me and all my friends
We’re all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing and
There’s no way we ever could
Now we see everything that's going wrong
With the world and those who lead it
We just feel like we don't have the means
To rise above and beat it
So we keep waiting
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change
It’s hard to beat the system
When we're standing at a distance
So we keep waiting
Waiting on the world to change
Now if we had the power
To bring our neighbors home from war
They would have never missed a Christmas
No more ribbons on their door
And when you trust your television
What you get is what you got
Cause when they own the information, oh
They can bend it all they want
That’s why we're waiting
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change
It's not that we don't care,
We just know that the fight ain't fair
So we keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change
And we're still waiting
Waiting on the world to change
One day our generation
Is gonna rule the population
So we keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change

Reminds me of Rang De Basanti..we keep waiting for the world to change, but we forget that we are the world, if the world needs to change, we need to..
