“Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.” John Lennon

How many of you remember where you were when John was killed and how many of you take time to think about your own life?

The Beatles concept of revolution had many meanings, or polysemous vinyl records take 33 1/3 revolutions to spin per minute. Imagine this, it’s been 33 years since John was shot and killed on the night of December 8 1980. John and Yoko were arriving at their NYC Dakota apartment and he was shot and killed.

That was the day the revolution changed in so many ways. I was working for NBC News and later wrote and produced a report, which was anchored by Roger Mudd.

"Laurel and Hardy, that's John and Yoko. And we stand a better chance under that guise
because all the serious people like Martin Luther King and Kennedy and Gandhi got shot." John Lennon

After John’s death, everything started to change. Life was much simpler then. Lets listen to the words of hope and consider adopting some of John Lennon’s philosophies because were living in increasingly fragile times.
