This has a lot to do with what I hope to do for us.

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

-------John Lennon

This was a man before his time and I can remember the day he was killed and exactly what I was doing and how much I cried for this great man. His insight was for a world of peace and helping all who needed help and being there for each other. How anyone could kill such a great man is beyond my comprehension.  I have recently talked about this man in another group I belong to and this very song was our topic. Just imagine what life could be like for all of us as one unit and not constantly fighting and degrading and belittling . I could go on and on but It is of no use. Thanks for reminding me again about this great man and his great plan. Imagine if there was a war and no one showed up. Imagine!!

Someone has to start thinking and doing the right things in this world or there wont be one left. We have to make the people realize that they are all accountable for all the grief and death and unhappiness in this world. It is so easy to blame someone else for what we condone ourselves everyday by not speaking up and trying to help those in need of our help and minding our own business when we should. How easy it is to try and push your ideas and ideals on to others when they are weaker than you are and cannot fight back . This is how many people treat each other too. They look for the weakest one to pounce on and take advantage of that person until their will is broken and they cant fight back anymore. This has to stop and now. We are supposed to be there for the weakest and yet we are not supposed to overtake them and by doing so abuse their rights just as others have done before. What a sad situation this is especially when you can t make people understand what they are doing to these other nations. They just cant see it and sometimes I think alot of them turn away and pretend that it isnt happening so therefore they dont have to deal with it. how easy that is isn't it?? Let the other guy be at fault and you are clean of all that is happening around you and with your approval.
