Esperanza
Hoy he visto la película 1984 basada, obviamente, en el libro del mismo nombre. Me he puesto muy nervioso. Los paralelismos son evidentes para cualquier persona que viva en el primer mundo. No me apetece extenderme mucho en el tema por que me deprimiría, la cuestión es que horas más tarde he escuchado esta canción de Ben Harper y me ha devuelto de golpe la esperanza en el ser humano. Espero que os transmita lo mismo que a mí.

With My Own Two Hands

Now I can change the world
With my own two hands
Make it a better place
With my own two hands
Make it a kinder place

With my own two hands

Now I could make peace on earth
With my own two hands
And I could clean up the earth
With my own two hands
And I can reach out to you

With my own two hands

I'm gonna make it a brighter place
With my own two hands
I'm gonna make it a safer place
With my own two hands
I'm gonna help Jah human race

With my own two hands

Now I could hold you
With my own two hands
And I can comfort you
With my own two hands

But you got to, got to use
Use your own two hands
Use your own, use your own two hands
Use your own, use your own two hands
Oh, you got to use your own two hands
