How do we love? How do we speak of things that we fear? How do we hear the things that we need to hear? This is especially challenging when there is so much divisiveness and fear mongering in the world? I wrote this song while working on The Floating Flagstone with Creative Ireland Kerry. How do we talk about important an difficult issues like climate change and biodiversity loss in the face of a global pandemic. I guess its important to keep asking the questions even if we don’t have the answers.
How do we love? (LYRICS)
How do we speak of things that we fear?
How do we hear the things that we need to hear?
How do we choose a path that is new?
Without going astray and losing our way?
CHORUS
And how, how do we love?
O how do we love? How do we love?
How do we speak when we are afraid?
How do we find the light in forests of dark and shade?
How do we love when hate is reigning from above?
O how do we love? How do we love?
CHORUS
How to be kind, when moments of meanness fill our mind?
O how to be kind? How to be kind?
How can we give so all others can thrive and live?
How can we love and how can we give?
CHORUS
