So today would have been John Lennon's 70th birthday...hard to imagine, really, what a 70-year old John Lennon would have looked like today. I suspect he wouldn't have grey'd much and would be still wearing his wonderful thin-rimmed glasses and still be smirking and shocking the cameras and media on a weekly basis with yet another wonderfully creative antic to bring attention to a world issue at hand.
He talked about a world where there were no countries, only peace..."no hell below us-above us only sky"...a world where there were no possessions nor no need for greed or hunger..only a brotherhood of man....
a world where we could all travel the globe , wherever we wanted, whenever we wanted, without a cell in our being experiencing the slightest sense of fear-only love, acceptance, tolerance, understanding and compassion....
now there is a world worth imagining....
Happy Birthday John...
we miss you...
I have been traveling since I was 4 years old-no joke. Ever since I first boarded that Pan Am flight to Rio and those flight attendants in their cute white caps greeted me with their beautiful smiles and bowls of candy, I was hooked. 43 years later,I am still traveling the globe and continuing this lifelong love affair with our planet. My journey never ends, whether I am here at home or overseas, for life is a never-ending learning process wherever you are. Be Here Now.
