Hello Friends,
I’ve noticed how we use colors of the rainbow to identify and classify gender, race, ethnicity, diseases and countless other things. I’ve also noticed how beautiful a rainbow is, all those colors grouped together in a perfect arc against the sky is always a stunning site to behold.
But why the need for so much separating and sorting and assigning specialness? Why not just be who you are, let others do the same and work together for the good of all as there’s plenty of room and resources for everyone to thrive? I know this may sound like a simple idea, and it is simple, but we seem to like to make things difficult and complicated and need/want to be the center of attention – welcome to today’s society.
Mel’s Two Cents: The world will change one person at a time. It all starts with you. Choose to ‘just be you’ and love and accept you as you are, then extend the same courtesy to others. As we do this and it slowly spreads, one day we’ll be able to bring John Lennon’s song ‘Imagine’ to life! I love the quote attributed to Oscar Wilde: “Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken.”
Until next time.
I leave you with the lyrics to John’s beautiful song – enjoy!
Mel
Imagine by John Lennon
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 (ah ah ah)
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 that 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 that 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
