Description from CAS: I was listening to a song off of Mary Chapin Carpenter's last album "The Calling", and the poetry of music struck me so forcefully I had to make a pick for it. The song is "Why Shouldn't We"
We believe in things that we cannot see; Why shouldn't we, why shouldn't we; Hands that heal can set a chained man free; Why shouldn't we, why shouldn't we; We believe in peace within every heart; Why shouldn't we, why shouldn't we; Burning brightly, brightly in the dark; So come on darling feel your spirits rise; Come on children open up your eyes; God is all around; Buddha's at the gate; Allah hears your prayers; It's not too late; We believe in things that will give us hope; Why shouldn't we, why shouldn't we; Let your voice be heard, celebrate your vote; Why shouldn't we, why shouldn't we; So come on darling feel your spirits rise; Come on children open up your eyes; God is all around; Buddha's at the gate; Allah hears your prayers; It's not too late; We believe in things that make us all the same; Why shouldn't we, why shouldn't we; Love belongs to all in deed and name; Why shouldn't we, why shouldn't we; And we believe in things that can't be done; Why shouldn't we, why shouldn't we; Lift up your heart, put down your gun; Why shouldn't we, why shouldn't we; We belive in things; We're told that we cannot change; Why shouldn't we; We had heroes once, and we will again; Why shouldn't we; So come on darling; Come on children; God is all around; Buddha's at the gate; Allah hears your prayers; It's not too late; Why shouldn't we; Why shouldn't we; Why shouldn't we; Why shouldn't we; Why shouldn't we

CAS says:When I heard it I had to play it over & over (around ten times) it’s so incredibily beautiful. She wrote it in 2007, but it’s a song that could be timeless. I wish that everyone could hear it.

Anita QoG Funny Chick says:I think that people who can reach so many, have a responsibility to!! It’s so wonderful when they open peoples eyes!!! Of course (unfortunately) not everyone will listen, but it only takes a few & a message can spread!!!
