About a week ago I wrote a blog called Apathy based on the Simon and Garfunkel song, 'Sound of Silence.' I had entitled the song 'The Grip of Evil.' That same day I thought how other 1960's war protest songs would fit in to this song cycle or song book. Immediately the old Bob Dylan song, Blowing in the Wind' came to mind. It has haunted me for the past week. Tonight I put it on paper for you.

The answer is found in us and our willingness to either go with the status quo or make a change for the better. Yes it does take a movement, but it starts with us leading and setting an example...standing up for family and children and what is right and true. We are in a war and a war song of apathy is again a fitting theme. Honestly this music makes me cry for the many who are hurting, helpless and feel hopeless. If they only knew @familyprotection. (Sigh).

In this song Dylan did not openly single out groups or organizations, but everyone knew who he was talking about. I parodied the lyrics in the same likeness. Again I offer two versions of the song to sing - a - long to - The Peter Paul and Mary version and the BeeGee 1963. Boy they look young! Take your pick. It is your choice.

Blowing in the Wind - Peter Paul and Mary

Blowing in the Wind - The BeeGees 1963

The Answer is Found in You And Me

How many teardrop of pain will be shed before the voiceless are heard?
Yes and how many stories of hearts must be read before we hear the words?
How many broken dreams lie ahead. I think it is rather absurd.
The answer you see in found in you and me
The answer is found in you and me.

How many children will CPS take before we can hear helpless cry
Yes and how many broken homes will they make before the pain can die
Yes and how many times must lives be destroyed...Before we refute the lie.
The answer you see in found in you and me
The answer is found in you and me

How many years must the evil go on, before the sickness will end
Yes and how many fears and trials go on, before justice can have a friend
And what is the cost of freedom for one, your apathy cannot mend.
The answer you see in found in you and me
The answer is found in you and me
