One of my favorite songs to listen to and perform is “Imagine” by John Lennon.

This beautiful song always gives me the chills and puts me on the verge of tears.

The lyrics are as follows:

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

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 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

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 live as one

May we find it in our hearts to choose love over hate. May we find it in our hearts to choose peace over violence-even in times when we disagree with others.

Imagine what our lives would be like if we all chose love over hate. ❤
