"Heal The World"

by: Michael Jackson

Think about—um—the generations and they say we wanna make it a better place for our children, and our children's children, so that they they they know it's a better world for them, and think if they can make it a better place

There's a place in your heart
And I know that it is love
And this place could be much brighter than tomorrow

And if you really try
You'll find there's no need to cry
In this place you'll feel there's no hurt or sorrow

There are ways to get there
If you care enough for the living
Make a little space
Make a better place

Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race

There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me

If you want to know why
There's a love that cannot lie
Love is strong
It only cares for joyful giving

If we try we shall see
In this bliss we cannot feel
Fear or dread
We stop existing and start living

Then it feels that always
Love's enough for us growing
Make a better world
To make a better world

Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race

There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me

And the dream we were conceived in
Will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed in
Will shine again in grace

Then why do we keep strangling life
Wound this Earth, crucify its soul?
Though it's plain to see
This world is heavenly
Be God's glow

We could fly so high
Let our spirits never die
In my heart I feel you
are all my brothers

Create a world with no fear
Together we'll cry happy tears
See the nations turn
their swords into plowshares

We could really get there
If you cared enough for the living
Make a little space
To make a better place

Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race

There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me

Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race

There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me

There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me

You and for me
Make a better place (You and for me)
Make a better place (You and for me)
Make a better place (You and for me)
(You and for me)

Heal the world we live in (You and for me)
Save it for our children (You and for me)
Heal the world we live in (You and for me)
Save it for our children (You and for me)
Heal the world we live in (You and for me)
Save it for our children (You and for me)
Heal the world we live in (You and for me)

Save it for our children

A married couple was in a terrible accident where the man's face was severely burned.

The doctor told the husband that they couldn't graft any skin from his body because he was too skinny.

So the wife offered to donate some of her own skin.
However, the only skin on her body that the doctor felt was suitable would have to come from her buttocks.

The husband and wife agreed that they would tell no one about where the skin came from, and they requested that the doctor also honor their secret

After all, this was a very delicate matter.

After the surgery was completed, everyone was astounded at the man's new face
He looked more handsome than he ever had before! All his friends and relatives just went on and on about his baby face!

One day, he was alone with his wife, and he was overcome with emotion at her sacrifice.
He said, "Dear, I just want to thank you for everything you did for me
How can I possibly repay you?"

My darling," she replied, "I get all the thanks I need every time I see your mother kiss you on the cheek."

This is what all of you 70+ year old's have to look forward to:

This is something that happened in an Aged Care Centre

The people who lived there have small apartments but they all eat at a central Cafeteria.

One morning, one of the residents didn't show up for breakfast so my friend went upstairs and knocked on his door to see if everything was OK

She could hear him through the door

He said that he was running late, and would be down shortly, so she went back to the Dining area.

An hour later, he still hadn't arrived; so she went back up towards his room and she found him on the stairs

He was coming down the stairs but was having a hell of time

He had a death grip on the hand rail and seemed to have trouble getting his legs to work right.

She told him she was going to call an ambulance but he told her no, he wasn't in any pain, and just wanted to have his breakfast

So she helped him the rest of the way down the stairs and he had his breakfast.
When he tried to return to his room he was completely unable to get up even the first step so they called an ambulance for him.

A couple hours later she called the hospital to see how he was doing

The receptionist there said he was fine, he just had both of his legs in one leg of his boxer shorts.

Good morning...

I have one less job to do this morning!! We had a lovely , much needed rain during the night!

Doing Callie's DD today.. then picking up the cooler from the neighbour. We planted some rhubarb in her garden yesterday and that rain will help it!

Rick, I love older homes.When we bought this place each year we would upgrade the rooms plus we built an addition on it. Dry wall and lots of insulation were put in the walls.Keeps us warm in the winter and somewhat cooler in the summer.

Bubble, thank you for the new start, you always come up wih the nicest posts. Now thank you for the heads up, think when we go to the nursing home it will be commando ,then no problem walking..

Jane, hope your computer is soon fixed!

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

Good morning everyone!
Loved the joke Bubble 😁 Shared it with my husband. His 50th class reunion is this month.

It' 59°F, headed to 90°F. Ron tells me that is the hottest day predicted for here, for the next month. Sounds good. More weed whacking today, and laundry. I might do some sewing. I need another sleeveless top. And there's watering, always watering.

I hope everyone has a lovely day.

Happy July Oneth!

I've read the posts every day but there's no subject I can relate to.

Bubble's story about the man in the nursing home reminded me of a tour I took of Greece. It was headed by a college professor and there were mostly students on it. He had filled in the group with non-students and two friends and I were some of them.
One morning, we went into breakfast and sat down by a "frat guy" who looked sleepy. We wished him a Good Morning and he replied in a puzzled tone, "I think I put my boxer shorts on backwards." He pulled out his waistband and said, "Yep. Gotta do something about that" and left.

We wondered what the students had done the night before!

Good morning EVERYFRIEND💐

I just finished reading all of the month of June's posts. You all have so many interesting things to share and it is delightful to read your posts.

We are finally settling back in after months of being on the go. Our time last winter spent in Prescott AZ was very enjoyable. Having a lot of special time with our son and family was wonderful and oh my, how I miss those two little grandsons.

We were home for almost a month before it was time to head to Boston to attend our second oldest grandsons graduation from high school. It was a delightful time and we sure enjoyed all the festivities and family time there.

Out the back door of the son's home they had a bird feeder and I could have sat there all day watching the MANY different bird that were feeding. Beautiful Cardinals and Bluejays....and so many other unknown colorful birds.

After our nice Bostonvisit we flew to Arizona to stay with our youngest son and his wife's special Oliver Doodle. They came to Colorado to her family's side reunion. While in Phoenix we drove up to Prescott to see the family and my sweet little loving grands. While there I had an eye appointment that was a follow up to my cataract surgery I had in February. It was a day trip as we had the doodle with us and one of the grands is allergic to the doggie dander or what ever, even tho the doodle thought to be allergenic free. It was a short visit but a very successful one.

June flew by so quickly it seems.

Yesterday I had a wonderful thing happen. I met a lady and we started chatting. In no time at all we figured out our path had crossed many years before. I babysat her and her older brother when she was born. It seems it is a small world and if you spend any time at all chatting to a stranger you will soon find that there is a connection of some kind. It made my day and we are hoping to keep in contact and reminisce more.

Thank you, BUBBLE for our new place to chat and enjoy each other. I want you to know that I pray for you and your family as well as your country during these hour times of conflict. 🙏🙏

I have been much too long winded today, but it has been awhile since I have been here and I had a LOT to say.

Enjoy your day and be safe and keep as cool as you can.
