Anniversary
Dec. 8th, 2006 07:02 pmNot a happy one, but one that shouldn't be forgotten. It probably doesn't rank as high as what most remember Dec 7th for, but for me it's certainly up there.
It was 26 years ago that John Lennon was shot and killed. I was a sophomore in high school and went through the day in a daze.
So today I wore my "Strawberry Fields Forever" shirt (bought in Central Park) and I'm playing my John Lennon CD. Maybe later I'll watch "A Hard Day's Night".
So, a simple commemoration and that's all that's really needed

Happy 66th!
Oct. 9th, 2006 04:28 pmYes, today John Lennon would have been 66. Can you just imagine (intended) the creativity we missed? Of course we know he'd be vocal regarding the current world situation. I was going to post the lyrics of a song but I couldn't decide on just one so here are 2.
Borrowed Time
When I was younger
Living confusion and deep dispair
When I was younger ah hah
Living illusion of freedom and power
When I was younger
Full of ideas and broken dreams (my friend)
When I was younger ah hah
Everything simple but not so clear
Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow
Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow
Now I am older
The more that I see the less that I know for sure
Now I am older ah hah
The future is brighter and now is the hour
Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow
Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow
Good to be older
Would not exchange a single day or a year
Good to be older ah hah
Less complications everything clear
Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow
Living on borrowed time
Without a thought for tomorrow
Love
Love is real, real is love
Love is feeling, feeling love
Love is wanting to be loved
Love is touch, touch is love
Love is reaching, reaching love
Love is asking to be loved
Love is you
You and me
Love is knowing
We can be
Love is free, free is love
Love is living, living love
Love is needing to be loved
