A kind of Magic…

Today is AIDS day here in South Africa, it is a disease that cripples so many nations, often untalked about, often shunned.  No cure, no miracle just yet, millions dying every minute and yet our Health minister believes in a guru that says garlic and beetroot will cure it, sangoma’s (tribal healers) tell men that the younger the person they sleep with the better chance they have of being cured leading to babies and kids being abused in ways I can not talk about.

Sick? AIDS & HIV are related and very much apart of the greater problems in the world.  Beware when your own president says that they aren’t related, it makes you wonder who his spin doctor is, perhaps he should hire that of dear Bush!  Freddy Mercury really highlighted the plight of this fast spreading disease, his death was mourned by millions around the world, here is his song It’s a kind of magic.

To all those suffering and inflicted with the virus, I admire your courage to fight, I admire your courage to spread the truth about it, to change peoples and societies views on it, to you I bow, never give up the fight!

It’s a kind of magic
It’s a kind of magic
A kind of magic
One dream one soul, one prize
One goal, one golden glance of what should be
It’s a kind of magic
One shaft of light that shows the way
No mortal man can win this day
It’s a kind of magic
The bell that rings inside your mind
It’s challenging the doors of time
It’s a kind of magic
The waiting seems eternity
The day will dawn of sanity
Is this a kind of magic?
It’s a kind of magic
There can be only one
This rage that lasts a thousand years
Will soon be gone
This flame that burns inside of me
I’m hearing secret harmonies
It’s a kind of magic
The bell that rings inside your mind
It’s challenging the doors of time
It’s a kind of magic
It’s a kind of magic
This rage that lasts a thousand years
Will soon be, will soon be
Will soon be gone
This is a kind of magic
There can be only one
This rage that lasts a thousand years
Will soon be gone
Magic – it’s a kind of magic
It’s a kind of magic
Magic, magic, magic, magic
It’s magic
It’s a kind of magic
