These lyric have been singing in my mind ...



What the World Needs Now Is Love is a 1965 song with lyrics by Hal David and music composed by Burt Bacharach.

If asked today what would you say to encourage folks?  Something meaningful?  I would still go with love ... sweet love.

Great Song, Anne!
The kind that gets in your head and will not leave!
1965 was a time of great turmoil in the country, similar but very different from what 2025 is turning out to be.
We still need "Love sweet love" now as much as we did then.

Since this is the holiday season as Thanksgiving and Christmas are near, maybe peace or...

Peace on earth and goodwill to all ...

Or maybe it would be What the world needs now is egg nog, parties, family gatherings or fruitcake.

Can anyone think of what we need now?
