Why?

Because some questions are their own answers.

WHY?

Why do we have to move the mountain?
Why can't we just tread along?
Why can't we be little more happy?
Why can't we be a little less strong?

Why do we have to reach to the stars?
Why can’t we gaze at them, in wonder and awe?
Why can’t we conquer, a little less?
Why can’t we feel blessed, a little more?

Why do we have to be the wealthiest?
At the cost of our soul?!
Why can’t we buy a little less?
Why can’t we own a little more?

Why do they say, life is a race?
Why is it necessary to come first?
Why can’t we enjoy, our own pace?
Why can’t we stroll, if running aint fun?

Why do we have to be, better in every respect?
Why do we have to be, everything that-sells?
Why can’t we be a little less than perfect?
Why can’t we be a little more of ourselves?

Everybody's love, everybody's attention,

Why do we have to seek?
Why don’t we realize, a hundred million followers, shift their faith,

The moment they find their leader weak?

Why do we have to kill, or die in His name?
Why do we have to believe in beliefs, even if we find them lame?
If we really have to thank the One above, the creator of land..
Why can’t we do so, by taking care of his creations, the earth, the animals, the man?

Why can only few be awarded the gift, called life?
Why do they say, only the 'fittest and strongest' can survive?
Why do we forget, that, the sun, the moon exist together, in the same sky, at dusk and at dawn?
Why do we not remember that sometimes, when the mighty ships cant, a small raft can save a life, in a storm?

Wow song by Rascal Flatts. The other one, I will check out today.
You're right..we all need to stop and catch a breath, every once in a while!

Thank you.

I really like this, and I agree that we should all be a little more relaxed.
I relate pretty much everything I see to music, and this reminds me of one of my favorite songs, Time Well Wasted by Brad Paisley, and one line of Mayberry by Rascal Flatts, "Sunday was a day of rest, now it's one more day for progress."
