I was surfing around Youtube and came across this video.
I love this song ever since the first time I heard it four years ago. It touches me on so many levels and goes back to grass roots, respect and empathy. And if the song isn’t enough, there couldn’t be a more perfect video to paint the words.
It’s also been the ringtone on my cell phone since the first time I heard it.
Take four minutes and twenty-nine seconds to enjoy listening (and looking at) to Tim McGraw and his reminder song about humility and kindness. The music and lyrics are beautiful and the video is reaffirming – extra touching at this seasonal time of the year. And a little more powerful because it reminds we are all one globally.

Tim McGraw–what a voice, and this is a wonderful song. They played it at a Trump rally I watched. Love it.

I’d be willing to bet he, once again, had NO copyright permission to use this song about KINDNESS at a hate rally. A bit of an oxymoron.

It still amazes me we need to remind people to love each other. Why doesn’t it come natural like the innocence of children before we teach them to hate?

Shows how much I know–surprised by all the images on a CW ballad! Not a fan of the current crop of Country. But it does have great lyrics and a wonderful message. You may recall Jill from WFW. At one of the parks in Minneapolis in the summer of 1970–yes, 50 years ago, a Country Western band was playing. I made some unkind remark and she said, “can’t we just enjoy the music–the time together?” So, sorta caught me up short here in that recollection. π

A lovely song. I love his songs. There was one I can’t quite remember the title but he sang it with Reece Witherspoon I think. It was a song from a film and I can’t find it on Google. If anybody knows it then I’ll be able to download it! x
