Happy 70th Birthday, John Lennon! Come share your favorite Lennon song/memory/picture here?

John's Give Peace A Chance Protest and Bed-In is something that is engrained in my young mind. I grew up with the Beatles and listened to more than their songs. I was 15 and walking back from a friends house when I heard that Lennon was shot.

I went into my bedroom and cried the whole afternoon. I have to admit that I lost a little faith that day. Faith that things would turn out okay.

Faith that all you need is love. "There's an alternative to violence. It's to stay in bed and grow your hair" -John Lennon.

I'll get together with my brothers and sisters this evening for an evening of partying and tribute to John Lennon. A man of vision and spirituality that he shared with the world with dedication and purpose. IMG

In my case…Well…I’ll stick to only one song! One song that guided my life…and this song is..LET IT BE! ;) youtube.com/watch?v=aocK0TMiZKk.

I grew up with John Lennon music and Give peace a chance was always one of my favorites. We need to apply that to our war situation right now! Happy Birthday!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
