Today, December 8th, marks the 36th anniversary of the death of John Lennon. A man who strove for peace, both in his personal life and world wide, he ironically died a violent death by gunshot.
John taught us that instead of protesting war we should try to live our daily lives in peace, celebrate peace and even advertise peace! His vision of world peace was never far from his heart. I am posting this video in honor of John Lennon and U.S. Troops everywhere, with hopes that my government, the United States of America, will END its GREEDY AND INSANE war mongering.
Imagine Peace. Pray for Peace. Live in Peace.
Blessed Be 🙂
Peace is of price value indeed. Let us give peace a chance.

A great man. I think he was simply too far ahead of his time. Even if he were here today, his concepts would still be way over most people’s heads.

Beautiful one of my favorite Christmas songs and, I like that you showed the soldiers helping people. Soldiers don’t make wars politicians do.

Another day that I remember exactly what I was wearing and doing. I played War Is Over today but of course, it never is. But I’ll always honor John’s words and thoughts about peace…

So true. John had a vision of peace that was really foreign and unnatural to this world. Our government is in love with violence and money. Still, maybe someday…
