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

  • "Imagine", John Lennon

And the part that speaks to this forum:

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky

Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose...
Thank you Janis....

Actually - thank you Kris and Fred. Janis just has the most famous version (though it was Gord's I heard first)

Every minute, every hour, is another chance to change/life is beautiful and terrible and strange

Yet still a light is shining
From that lamp on down the hall.
Maybe the star of Bethlehem
Wasn't a star at all.

It was an extraterrestrial craft. Ancient Aliens FTW!

Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid.

Hey! Hey! I've got something to say!
Its better to burn out than fade away!

Too many to count - but this has been a favorite for a long time:

The wise man said just find your place
In the eye of the storm
Seek the roses along the way
Just beware of the thorns

The drunken, Welsh poet Dillan Thomas wrote a poem 'to his father', apparently. Even though I am 110 years old, I try to live by this poem. "Do not go quiet into that good night/ But rage, rage against the closing of the light." The way I look at, being dead 30 years before the actual event, makes the event rather inconsequential. If we sleep 8 hours a day and reach the age of 60, we have slept for 20 years.

I missed my cardinal point, which is: live every day; try to make some progress; don't waste any of it.

Affirmation
by Savage Garden

I believe the sun should never set upon an argument
I believe we place our happiness in other people's hands
I believe that junk food tastes so good because it's bad for you
I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do
I believe that beauty magazines promote low self esteem
I believe I'm loved when I'm completely by myself alone
I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye
I believe you can't control or choose your sexuality
I believe that trust is more important than monogamy
I believe that your most attractive features are your heart and soul
I believe that family is worth more than money or gold
I believe the struggle for financial freedom isn't fair
I believe the only ones who disagree are millionaires
I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye
I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness
I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed
I believe that God does not endorse TV evangelists
I believe in love surviving death into eternity
I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye

I could have missed the pain , but then I would have missed the dance.

candle lights wane
by the winds of change
blowing off days
in my almanac

my body
ignores pain
for another
chance
at paradise

As this wwheel goes 'round I search to find my way struggle just to hold on through an ordinary day. I do believe I'm slipping away but I shall return, though I'm losing myself I Shall return from the depths of my own hell I shall return fate should not have blinded me for your beauty steals my eyes what good is my wisdom when I have no words to say how I feel everyday but I shall return daylight finds me sleeping dreaming of my youth darkness calls my name out loud and I answer to the truth but I shall return

In the astral realm magiculating,
Waking ya'hoes up pent-up and percolating.
See my face like hello ma'lady.
