Hadn't been on the board in a while. But,I would like to share a thought. Wondergirls thread on Gaza, kinda inspired this. Anyway, over the holiday, I took my 16 yr old daughter and a friend to NYC for the holidays { lots of money spent. 3 Broadway plays, classy dining, the whole works, BIG TIME } But, one day, we went to the Dakota where John Lennon and Yoko lived. Went across the street in Central Park and saw the " Imagine " memorial there. Despite, there being quite a bit of snow, there was still 5 roses on the memorial. Mr. Lennon, was quite a visionary and quite blunt and to the point. I believe, if he would have been able to talk to the world's leaders today, he would have said " What the hell are you afraid of, getting along with each other might feel good ! Are you afraid, if everybody gets along, the world might prosper ! Just think, no more killing and a world coming together to help the sick and inflicted." Imagine. Mr. Lennon was more than a Beatle and I wish he were alive today.
