People: A Musical Celebration1995

Cara:
Fight, fight, fight. That's all people know how to do is fight. Grandpa, I figured something out.

Grandpa:
You did? About what?

Cara:
About why people fight. Like Mom and Dad and everyone. This one hates that one, that one fights with the other one. I think I figured out why.

Grandpa:
Well, that's important. People have been trying to fix that one for years. Why do people fight?

Cara:
They think they're different.

Grandpa:
Well, that's a very good answer. What exactly does it mean?

Cara:
It means people fight because they think everybody else should be just like them.

Grandpa:
So what do we do about it?

Cara:
Simple. Tell them we're all really the same. We are all the same, aren't we? I mean, human.

Grandpa:
Hmm. Do you have any idea how many people you're talking about?

Cara:
Six billion in the year 2000. I do go to school, you know.

Grandpa:
Forgive me. I forget how smart you are.
