Imagine no possessions, I wonder if you can

John Lennon is one of my hero's.  The man was brilliant and such a beautiful soul.  His beliefs are still as important today than ever, especially with the new war being waged in Afghanistan.  We need to get more active and stand up for our beliefs.  People today aren't as active with protesting.  Fashion is nothing compared to saving lives and making our voices heard. Today is the 29th anniversary of Lennon's murder let us use that as a reminder to stand up in what we believe in.  I am currently at home listening to his music and feeling sad and also glad that we have such beautiful music left behind to inspire us and new generations too.

Here is what Yoko has to say today!

AN AFFIRMATION FOR PLANET EARTH

Yoko Ono Lennon
December 8, 2009

On the anniversary of the passing of my husband, John Lennon,
I would like you to share an affirmation with me.
Think it, say it, with firm belief,
knowing that we are all one.

In the name of truth, peace and love:
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Our planet is healthy and whole,
We, the people of Earth
See clearly, Hear clearly, Think clearly.
Make the right judgement, right decision and the right move
For the benefit of our planet and others.

We are now bathing in the light of Dawn,
Standing in the Heaven we have created together,
Sharing the Joy
With all Lives on Earth
And of the Universe,
As we are all one, united with infinite and eternal love.

For the highest good of all concerned, So be it.

With all my love,
yoko ono lennon
