Imagine

as sung by John Lennon

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
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

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 someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one


The website that houses this song was hit over 9000 times on May 27th. Not sure why. Was John Lennon recently in the news? For me this is synchronicity. Lennon is Joey's favorite Beatle and the 27th would have been our 9th wedding anniversary. Add to that that last night I dreamed of his being released from prison. Weird.

At any rate the reason I thought of the song was because of what my perpetual calendar says:

Dreamers dream...doers do.

I disagree with that statement somewhat. I think dreamers also act, doers follow their lead.

I think "Imagine" experienced a recent surge due to a cover version on American Idol.
