26 years ago, a madman tragically took an iconic figure of peace and love, and my hero, out of this world.

"I always was a rebel...but on the other hand, I wanted to be loved and accepted...and not just be a loudmouth, lunatic, poet, musician. But I cannot be what I am not." --John Lennon

i took this picture almost 3 years ago. visiting strawberry fields in central park was something i'd dreamed of since i was a kid, and it certainly touched me in a way i cannot describe. his spirit is there.



So remember him tonight, and IMAGINE what the world might be like if everyone gave peace a chance...

It was a sad day indeed, I remember hearing about it on the news.
Has it really been that long..sigh..?
