December 8th, perhaps a regular day for some.
For me it is the day to celebrate the Life, the wisdom and
music and the good fortune to be exposed to a
musician that impacted on the lives of many,
many people, via the venues of televison, movies and live performances and recordings.
A loss.. "death " far too early for a humanitarian who
made an indelible mark with his persistence for peace so that it would exist for all of mankind.
Maybe moments like this are given for a reason; thankyou John......your spirit
surrounds the world. Especially at a season of celebration of "birth" .
I hope all the fans out there will "Remember".

This Post was submitted as an addendum to Scarlett;s....."Christmas" and also as a little more.

Today is indeed a sad day in history. Imagine all the lovely words John Lennon would have written if he had not been killed... and I feel gyped if I sit down and think about it...

In My Life

By John Lennon and Paul McCartney

There are places I remember all my life,
Though some have changed,
Some forever, not for better,
Some have gone and some remain.

All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall.
Some are dead and some are living.
In my life I've loved them all.

But of all these friends and lovers,
There is no one compares with you,
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new.

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before,
I know I'll often stop and think about them,
In my life I'll love you more.

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before,
I know I'll often stop and think about them,
In my life I'll love you more.
In my life I'll love you more.
