"What about the night we cried

Because there wasn't any reason left to keep it all inside

Never understood a word

But you were always there with a smile"

Here Today

We miss you and love you,

Rest in peace John lennon (1940- ♾)

"I have such an admiration for John, like most people. But to be the guy who wrote with him, well that's enough. Right there, you could retire and go, 'Jesus, I had a fantastic life. Take me, Lord."

-Paul McCartney

Remembering John....

[run-down-that-dream]

John, my dear. You may have been ripped from this world long before I was born, yet I feel I've always known you. I've grown up with your presence - your music, your spirit. You've always just been there. Through the best of times, the cloudy days, even those nights I didn't want to spend alone. So today, I thank you for everything you'll never know you've done for me. And I pray that somehow, somewhere, your beautiful soul can feel how much you're still loved 💛

George Harrison and John Lennon, December 1974, photo by Patti Daley (?).

"The idea of John not being here doesn't bother me so much because — he is here, to me. That's what the whole life of Christ was, to show people, 'You dug him then — re-dig him now.' To realize that it's the spirit, not the body. And I've learned that over the years. In a way, you don't need a living guru in front of you, because he's in front of your spiritual eye, every time you close your eyes and go inside. They're all there, all our friends and loved ones, all our relatives. Everybody is there." - George Harrison, Musician, Mar 1990

"Maybe I'm peculiar but to me he isn't dead. When I never saw him for years before he died I thought, 'Oh well, he's living in New York and I just haven't seen him in a while.' It's kind of still like that. Ok, the physical body falls off, but the soul lives on, we're going to meet again. It was a terrible thing that his death occurred and it made me feel terrible at the time, but in retrospect life is just shadows, we are just shadows on this sunny wall and that’s all it is." - George Harrison, Q, 1995 (x)

Another year gone

Another year gone without John. Time seems to fly by when you're not paying much attention or are too busy to realize. When I first became a die-hard fan, he'd only been gone 28 years. Still a significant amount of time, but compared to now, close to forty years without him really makes you think and makes me miss him all the more. I mean I never knew him, he was gone way before my time, but through old videos, movies, interviews, books, I feel like I've known him for many years. This day always resonates with me and makes me sad. By all accounts, John should still be with us. I know I'm not alone in wishing that. Can you all just picture old man John Lennon? Can you picture him being a active in social media, voicing opinions on today's crises? Can you see maybe him and Paul putting out a video on Facebook or Twitter or something, of them just jamming together like the old days? The very thoughts bring tears to my eyes. Mostly because its impossible for any of that to happen. John's life was taken. Taken too soon and brutally. He had so much left to give us. Today, many fans pay their respects in their own ways. Some were probably able to visit Strawberry Fields in Central Park, others mourned differently. Listened to his music, watched his old interviews and videos... Point is that it's been 37 years without dear John, its a sad day indeed, but he'll always be loved, remembered and his memory will always be kept alive

💘💘 JOHN WINSTON LENNON 💘💘

October 9, 1940 - December 8, 1980

36 years ago today, the world witnessed the villainous side of humanity. Who was to know that such evil breeds in the human mind and can be acted upon through a weapon which we have created to purposely annihilate one another. One person’s decision forever changed the world as we know it. A trigger was pulled, shots were fired, and a moment of silence hung in the air as time blurred and people scrambled to understand what happened. John Lennon’s life was put to rest. Not one thing in this world can justify the sadness, anger, and painful love that I feel in my heart today. John might not have been the role model of a perfect person, but above all, he showed us something that is more important; he showed us what it is to be human. To be human means to have flaws and to have the strength to confess your weaknesses. John never claimed divinity, all he wanted was the truth that he so ever gave to us. I love you with every single piece of my being John. I have grieved for your loss since you have come into my life and I must face the fact that this pain will never cease. I am blessed to be able to celebrate your wisdom and love in my own life and it is through my life that your memory will live on. I can’t unbind what I feel in my heart because it is in a million pieces right now. Nothing I could ever say in this piece of writing would reflect just how much I love you and how you’ve impacted my life. I only hope that wherever in the universe you may be, you are with our beloved George and are at peace. You only wanted to be loved in your lifetime and let me tell you, I am more than certain that you were. You have given us such light, love, and peace with your life and music, something that has and will forever live on past your earthly existence. Thank-you so much for blessing my life John. xxxxxxxx
