    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


    I think we could all get behind this song, but I just don't see it happening, sadly.

    One of my all time favorite songs though it depresses me because I doubt it will ever be a reality.

    there is nothing that we can do alone....we all just have to work together...keep our minds and our hearts focused on what we believe and I do believe things will change. I doubt that life will ever be what John Lennon hoped and dreamed it would....what many of us hope and dream it could be. I do believe though that if we keep at it...if we don't give up then things will change, even if it is only a little it'll be worth it all

    i must really be a dreamer because i believe anything is possible. i think that the dreamers just have to stick together and never give up on our beliefs. sooner or probably later maybe the rest of the world will follow. and i have to believe that because if i don't what's the point?

    i agree, if we are not aiming for better things we may as well give in, i think the world will get closer and more loving, i do believe this can happen, just individuals need to do it and spread the love

    It already did come true...in the Soviet Union.


    But John Lennon's dream (i.e. Communism) crumbled like so many stale crackers.

    i don't believe the Soviet Union was communism, Lenin added his own parts in to Marxs view, and I also do not think communism was totally Lennons dream either, although they sound familiar, I do not feel this is what he was getting at
    Peace michael x

    John Lennon turned me on. Via the walrus. Peace on Earth is possible if only people wake up .No wonder pure LSD-25 is illegal. War mongers hate peace.

    To assume something about him is laughable.

    i think in this case the message is more important than the man.

    i think if more people took peace seriously it would make a difference. it already did, just not enough for world peace. i dont think total peace will be achieved in this life but mabey one day the human race will get it right. Some people just dont take it seriously so the influence others not to take it seriously. Wow.. i just realized that there are alot of little cycles inside of one big life cycle.lol
    nothin else to realy do except try to make people realize that it could happen.
