A Weekend Meditation

If I had to pick a song, and one song only, as a favorite song of all time, I would pick "Imagine", by John Lennon.


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 that 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 that 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

I do not think that my father was a John Lennon fan.  But my father and John Lennon did have one thing in common.  They both had the same birthday.  It is today, October 9.  My father is a big part of who I am...I will be remembering him today.
