John Lennon died 30 years ago today. What a shock it was to the world. I find it mind boggling to think that it was thirty years ago, it has gone in almost the blink of an eye. What would he have achieved? lots? nothing further? we'll never know but I'm pretty certain he would have had sad reservations about modern life. The things he was striving for haven't materialised, the world is still unbalanced, there's still war and poverty. However, he may have taken the up side and seen the world grew more compassionate, more people living a gentler life and quietly trying to practice some of what he "preached".
Rest in Peace Mr Lennon.
"You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one."
Oh sweet child of mine...
5 years ago
