Imagine

Imagine

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,
No religion too,
Imagine all the people living life in peace...

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 I’m a dreamer,
but I’m not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one.

Written by John Lennon

I just heard this song for the first time. It is often said to be the best song by Lennon. Now I see why it is. Wonderful peace of work! (Spelling mistake is intentional). An instant entry into my all time favourites. A solution to heal the world?

    Yes ... a wonderful "peace" of work.
    If only everyone could understand the importance of peace, would there be no more cutting of mother earth in pieces...

    Thanks for sharing

    @arti sure does help if people thought this way...
    @divya True. but the irony is that a multimillionaire musician is advicing others to have no possessions.

Sigh!

Why is the beer bottle so slender? I think its a deconstruction of the fact that you get a pot belly after a few beers over a period of time. Ah well, I should be taking a few sit ups! Ciao. P.S: I should be remembering the following cartoon before I start a fight with someone. Ciao again. (toon courtesy: xkcd )

Since our hero had a critical hear condition, the programme was a capsule,crash course... Pappoos: *blushes, smiles, shakes his head* Neo: *slaps Pappoos* Lesson one...stop doing that! Gentlemaanyan (GM from now on): Close your eyes...concentrate...till you see 'the white light and deep brown tranquil depths'... Garfield: We ain't talking about you, dumbo!
