I hear this song since I'm a child. It was written and sang by michael jackson, and it talks about the world we are living, and the way we live. War, corruption, death are everywere, and little by little, we are getting acustomed to them, and many other bad things that are not good for us at all. Many people have tried, as the song name says it, to heal the world: We know about Agnes Bojaxiu (Madre Teresa de Calcuta), Diana Frances Spencer or most known as Lady Di, and many other people all arawnd the world, that, the way they could, or they thought it would be the best way, and we can see that they choose the best way: Love.
This song was written in 1991. During this period of time, the URSS had recently dissapear. A big period of "endless" war had finlay stopped, And from then on, the world was in a way "hurt" by the cold war, and all kind of conflicts.
The song chorus sais:
for you and for me
and the entire human race
there are people dying
if you care enought
for the living
make a better place
for you and for me
As to make a connection with the books we've read, those "realities" in the books, the way people live and the world behaves, are all an horror. There is no love in people, no body wants to make anyone truly happy. Some controls others lifes, it's all a mess, and probably if we don't try at least to help others, to change our reality, we will finaly finish up controled by others, and will provably live a terrible life as the books represents. In a way, those books are trying to advertise us (people) not to let the world finish that way.
