On today's date in 1940, John Lennon was born. To celebrate, we went to see
Across the Universe the new film directed by Julie Taymor featuring the music of the Beatles. I suddenly realized the significance of the timing of this film. We are in a war that is often compared to the war in Viet Nam. And we still talk of peace as if it’s the silly dreams of hippie fairy tails.
Lennon’s message was simple and yet profound. The most profound things usually are straightforward. That’s why in his honor I chose this quote of the day.
“...All you need is Love...”

WAR IS OVER!

I love this post. So true. the hippie in me embraces all of the "All we need is love" philosophy. How was the movie?
...great minds...thinking alike...
"You always felt like suede
There are days I feel your twin
Peekaboo..."

I liked the quote, but I know that my wife did because she thought that we could just hold each other and let the water wash over, like the old couple in Titanic. Started to write a blog here, but decided I better post it to my site not yours.
