(Christmas Time) Imagine by John Lennon

Christmas Tree LightingIt is December 24 here and just a day away from Christmas. Are you already done with your Christmas shopping? Have you set up your wish list? What are the wishes you have for Santa Claus this year?

Whatever your wishes to Santa may be, I hope that they do come true for you. I would just like to take this opportunity to wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

May you and your family experience peace, joy and harmony. May we also extend that peace, joy and harmony to people around us. With the thought of peace, loving kindness, compassion and understanding towards each other, we will be able to make our common dream comes true – that one day we are living in peace and harmony.

Differences divide while similarities bond us together. There was a saying which I chanced upon previously but I couldn’t recall the author of it now; it goes, “One day people will realise that there is only one race in this world – the human race.” Let us starts peace from within us.

Thank you Cathy for sharing the lyrics of Imagine by John Lennon with me in the previous post.

Imagine 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 that 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 that 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

    Hi Symphony of Love – I too love the John Lennon song. Your white pointsettia flower glows out to warm our soul.

    I hope we can all experience peace, joy and harmony and bring that to others, who will spread those sentiments further afield.

    I love the quote – there is only one human race .. and as you say let us start with peace from within us.

      @ Julia, glad that you love that song. Merry Christmas too.

      @ Hilary, that flower was a decoration on a Christmas Tree. Glad that it has warmed your soul. I hope that all will experience peace, joy and harmony. Thank you for your warm wishes.

    Sharing and ‘Imagine all the people’ by John Lennon was an excellent, choice as Christmas music theme by the webmaster of this blog. With its global message, it fits the needs of our trouble ridden times better than sentimental Christmas songs. Nothing against lyrics like ‘Silent night, holy night’, no offense taken. However, peace and sharing is what Christianity is all about in the sense of Jesus Christ. No hunger, thirst or racial barriers for all sounds like a dream, albeit consented by many, if I may cite John Lennon. But, why must it stay a dream?
    There is indeed a great chance for a better world with so many bloggers advocating goodwill for all. Thanks to the Internet and the blog sharing of ideas and dreams…

      @ Diane, Liza, Modern Mom, Sandee, Merry Christmas and a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year to all of you too. 🙂

      @ Colbymarshall, thank you for taking the time to visit us. Merry Christmas to you too. 🙂

      @ Gabriele, thank you for your kind words. It doesn’t has to be a dream indeed. If each of us is able to take the first step working towards peace, we can go on to influence others to do the same too and one day people can really be living life in peace.
