A song for Haiti

Haiti was a country that suffered greatly this year by the earthquake, many families whit children die, and many diseases.

The society in the world was very important in the moment because all extended their hands, in the world the people has a big love for other persons, we talking for wars, terrorism but the most important in this world is the love... on this occasion we can observe how a group of people show their grief through song.


Is important know how many people "start" "celebrity" really have no interest in others and themselves.


I think we have to unite, as well as these characters did, all the more love we have to offer...
This song gives us a sense of togetherness, friendship, solidarity, respect, compassion, I believe that all these feelings are due to turn in an action by others.
All Time ....Love for the worl ...must always be so
