My tribute to John Lennon, my hero extraordinaire!
Quotes by
JOHN LENNON
In memoriam for John....
let us look back on some of
his more famous quotes.
"A dream you dream alone is only a dream.
A dream you dream together is reality."
"As usual, there is a great woman behind every idiot."
"Everybody loves you when you're six foot in the ground."
"Everything is clearer when you're in love."
"God is a concept by which we measure our pain."
"...Guilt for being rich, and guilt thinking that perhaps
love and peace isn't enough and you have to
go and get shot or something."
"I believe in everything until it's disproved.
So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons.
It all exists, even if it's in your mind.
Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't
as real as the here and now?"
"I believe in God, but not as one thing,
not as an old man in the sky.
I believe that what people call God
is something in all of us.
I believe that what Jesus and Mohammed and Buddha
and all the rest said was right. It's just that
the translations have gone wrong."
"I don't believe in killing whatever the reason!"
"I'm not going to change the way I look or the way I feel
to conform to anything. I've always been a freak.
So I've been a freak all my life and I have to
live with that, you know. I'm one of those people."
"If being an egomaniac means I believe in what I do
and in my art or music, then in that respect you can
call me that... I believe in what I do, and I'll say it."
"If everyone demanded peace instead of another
television set, then there'd be peace."
"If someone thinks that love and peace is a cliche
that must have been left behind in the Sixties,
that's his problem. Love and peace are eternal."
"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."
"Life is what happens while you are busy
making other plans."
"Love is the answer, and you know that for sure;
Love is a flower, you've got to let it grow."
"Music is everybody's possession.
It's only publishers who think that people own it."
"My role in society, or any artist's or poet's role,
is to try and express what we all feel.
Not to tell people how to feel.
Not as a preacher, not as a leader,
but as a reflection of us all."
"Our society is run by insane people
for insane objectives.
I think we're being run by maniacs
for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be
put away as insane for expressing that.
That's what's insane about it."
"Part of me suspects that I'm a loser,
and the other part of me thinks I'm God Almighty."
"Reality leaves a lot to the imagination."
"Surrealism had a great effect on me
because then I realised that the imagery in my mind
wasn't insanity. Surrealism to me is reality."
"The basic thing nobody asks is
why do people take drugs of any sort?
Why do we have these accessories to
normal living to live? I mean, is there something wrong
with society that's making us so pressurized,
that we cannot live without guarding ourselves
against it?"
"The more I see the less I know for sure."
"The thing the sixties did was to show us
the possibilities and the responsibility
that we all had. It wasn't the answer.
It just gave us a glimpse of the possibility."
"Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted."
"We've got this gift of love,
but love is like a precious plant,
You can't just accept it and leave it
in the cupboard or just think it's going to
get on by itself. You've got to keep watering it.
You've got to really look after it and nurture it."
"When you're drowning, you don't say
'I would be incredibly pleased if someone would
have the foresight to notice me drowning
and come and help me,' you just scream."
"You don't need anybody to tell you who you are
or what you are. You are what you are!"
"You either get tired fighting for peace, or you die."
"You're just left with yourself all the time,
whatever you do anyway.
You've got to get down to your own God
in your own temple. It's all down to you, mate."

Hey. I live right on the beach in the Bay Area.
Love it here!
Also have a place in Oregon,
right on the river. Escape is the word. Pretty nice.
I have 2 teenage boys, Jonathon(21) and David(20).
The greatest kids.
I cherish them. And I am lucky to have them.
I married my soul mate, finally.
Truly, my knight in shining armour,
who lightens my life in every way....JD Smith.
He is a musician extraordinare! ...
And loves life as I do.
We play music together as a duet,
and in several bands, including:
"THE MIXERS" !
We play here all over the bay area.
See our web site at: The Official Mixers Web Page
What a kick!!!
We also play in another band called "THE PLASTIC ONION BAND"
WHICH IS AN ALL BEATLES COVER BAND....
talk about FUN!
I sing, play guitar, flute, sax, percussion,
and am learning bass, keyboard and mandolin.
JD and I are looking to connect
with other serious musicians who know
how to write original songs and sing,
and share other original music to
take on the road a bit.
We are pop centered (meaning "covers most genres"
and with a kick. Not your stupid Britney pop or crap like that.
But stuff that incorporates rock, blues,
folk, bluegrass, funk, ska, reggae...
a whole variety. We want diversity.
Not a bunch of repeats. Savvy?
Not many people out there can do that.
So we have found.
I am working on making a complete living
doing art and music, living the dream!
Many thanks to the Universe for this!
I am also getting into the healthcare field....
a very important thing in the world
for us these days...as we rape the earth and have
nothiing left that is good to put
into our bodies...so we just take a pill.
HELLO! Wake up people!
If you don't take care of yourself and
eat the right things, you
are headed nowhere fast.
It is all a matter of diet.
And it is really pretty easy.
It just takes thought and action...
Something we are all born with.
I head a couple support groups for women
and I enjoy coaching people through life
and helping as much as I can.
I am right along with all the oth r people
who want to show their voice
to make a difference.
In a zombie nation, we shall rise. No more lies.
On a deeper note, JD and I have been trying to
recieve another miracle in our lives..
that of another child. Or 2. It has been tough,
but I have faith it will happen. One way or another.
I am no religion and all religion at the same time.
Just as we all are. (if only we all knew that)
What is it with people?
Love is the word. Divine energy.
Love is the word. Divine energy. All one. All life.

HERE'S A LITTLE WIDGET
ON MY PERSONALITY...
thought it was fun!
..
Your Inner Color is Orange
Your Personality: A total daredevil, you'll try any thrill.
You're easily bored and you prefer to be on the go.
You in Love: You see love as an adventure, and you find most men dull.
You need someone who challenges you!
Your Career: Your ideal job is flexible, fun, and maybe a little dangerous.
You have the makings of a private investigator or extreme athlete.
Angel:
Angels are the guardians of all things,
from the smallest ant to the tallest tree.
They give inspiration, love, hope, and positive emotion.
They live among humans without being seen.
They are the good in all things, and if you feel alone, don't fear.
They are always watching.
Often times they merely stand by, whispering into the ears
of those who feel lost. They would love nothing more than to
reveal themselves, but in today's society, this would bring havoc
and many unneeded questions. Give thanks to all things beautiful,
for you are an Angel.
