Instant Karma's gonna get you
 

Instant Karma's gonna get you
Gonna knock you right on the head
You better get yourself together
Pretty soon you're gonna be dead
What in the world you thinking of
Laughing in the face of love
What on earth you tryin' to do
It's up to you, yeah you

It's the 20th anniversary today of John Lennon's death....

I'm not one to mourn pop stars as if they were gods.... But despite what others may think of him, I believe he was trying to move things in the right direction....

Many of his songs are very inspirational.... Touching....

It's up to YOU to make your life a better life, and your world a better place for all....

In the spirit of a better world....

Well we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the sun
Well we all shine on
Ev'ryone come on!

It can not POSSIBLY be 20 years.....
 

I remember standing in the hallway of my dorm, by the mailboxes and one of my dorm mates walked by sobbing about the death of Lennon.

I could understand the depth of her emotion, since if it had been Jackson Browne I would have worn BLACK for months.....(I was a huge JB fan, as I called him back then.)

I was just reminded of a Crosby, Stills and Nash (not sure if it was with Young at that time) lyrics

We can change the world
Rearrange the world.....

**And then my thought is, one person at a time we are doing just that!

May the Lennon family remember today not with sadness, but with joy over the gifts Mr. Lennon has given.

With Purpose and Passion,

JULIE JORDAN SCOTT

Running on empty.... running on....

I don't know too many Jackson Browne songs but I know some.... I guess I know his duet with Clarence Clemens the best....

Years may come and go
Here's one thing I know
All my life
You're a friend of mine
What if mountains fall?
Nothin' left at all
I'll be fine
'Cause you're a friend of mine

Thanks Julie and to many others.... You've all been great friends....

And I know it's not just me.... many great friendships have been forged through Sowpub.... :)
