Why Can’t We Be Friends?

Here’s another edition of the Thursday Evening Post. 😊

Kindness is magical. 💚

Have you ever woken up in a grumpy mood but find yourself changing your attitude because someone has just had a kind interaction with you?

Kindness is SO POWERFUL! ❤️

The power of kindness is evident in “Why Can’t We Be Friends?” by WAR.

Lyrics:

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
La, la, la, la, la, laa
La, la, la, la, la, la
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
I’ve seen you ’round for a long, long time
I remembered you when you drank my wine
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
I’ve seen you walking down in Chinatown
I called you, but you could not look around
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
I paid my money to the welfare line
I see you standing in it every time
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
The color of your skin don’t matter to me (Ow!)
As long as we can live in harmony
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
I’d kind of like to be the President (Oh yeah!)
So I can show you how your money’s spent, hoo!
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Sometimes, I don’t speak right
But yet, I know what I’m talking about
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
I know you’re working for the CIA
They wouldn’t have you in the Mafi-A
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?
Why can’t we be friends?

I captured this photo the first time I visited Tokyo Disneyland. What a great demonstration of friendship here! We’ve got Minnie and Mickey dancing excitedly to music performed by a bunch of happy ghosts. 😄

I love how the music video shows all different kinds of people getting along! 💜

We are ALL humans who ALL want to be loved and respected! 💚

If we all remembered that in every interaction we have, can you imagine how many “bad” days could turn into good ones?

YOU have the power to positively impact society MERELY through being kind!

I hope you make the choice to do just that! ❤️

May you be well! 💙

If you’d like to support my mission to share my passion for music with the world and spread joy, love, and positivity, you can do so here. Thank you so much! 💛
