New Year's Day

All is quiet on New Year's Day
A world in white gets underway
I want to be with you
Be with you night and day
Nothing changes on New Year's Day
On New Year's Day

I will be with you again

Under a blood red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white
Arms entwined, the chosen few
The newspapers says, says
Say it's true it's true...
And we can break through
Though torn in two
We can be oneI...

I will begin again

Oh..
Maybe the time is right
Oh...
maybe tonight...

I will be with you again
And so we're told this is the golden age
And gold is the reason for the wars we wage
Though I want to be with you
Be with you night and day
Nothing changes
On New Year's Day
On New Year's Day
- U2 (New Year's Day)

Its over 2006 and new year begins in 2007. After listening to that song by U2, i cant help but to listen to a newer song by them Miss Sarajevo and reflect on what kind of world we are living in.
Something is wrong with the world today and some of us must be wondering why nothing is done to correct the wrongs and perhaps question whether we have been abandoned by the power above. Maybe, but i think we just need love. The world has forgotten to love and this has caused violence and the chain reactions wont end unless we all have the will to forgive and love. Its the universal language of the world and maybe the hope of a better future. Love, Peace and Empathy.
