last week after robin william's death i posted a post i made on a news site. i mentioned that i wish lennon and marley were still alive. i guess i wrote that because they seemed to make so much sense out of things when you could be feeling really low. and, i am pretty sure lennon knew a bit about depression.
fate. we greeks believe in it. maybe too much. but, sometimes things happen. like today; i rarely put the radio on as mentioned. heard this version of 'imagine.' thought at first, hmmm...lennon had an unbelievable voice. always yearning, asking, hoping. and, this song is epic. i was not expecting much...
about a third of the way in i was singing. thinking how i would definitely add to this to my 'beatles' unit in my music appreciation class. cried a little. not too much. sad that i am not teaching. but, hopeful that i may again someday.
also, i dedicate this song to scott/sls. i hope you are not offended scott. i mean it in goodwill. hoping some of you others too that are not listening anymore might 'feel' a bit as i did today.
