Let it be...



Sometimes I think I should have born sometime in the 70's. A time where people had a sense of depth. A time where there was passion in the world. A time when peace was prominent. A time when music had meaning - John Lennon, Paul MacCartney (The Beatles), Bob Dylan, Queen. Instead I've adapted the habits of facebooking and cell phones. I've really been trying to stear away from facebook, in fact both - or technology of any kind. I say that as I'm writing a blog... ha. But you get what I mean. I can't stand the drama that is on Facebook... daily. Or the sayings that people say such as, "I never get jealous when I see my ex with someone else, because my parents always taught me to give my used toys to the less fortunate." Seriously people? I think there are a lot more things to be worried about in life. No one cares, period. No one has respect for people these days - it's so sad. Always degrading to make themselves feel superior, being selfish because they want to get ahead of the game. Everything is about ME, ME, ME. People have no idea what it means to be selfless and giving. Back then it seems that people fought for what is right, and they had to do it the hard way.... with hard work and dedication. It's so easy to appologize to someone over a text message or say things that 'you don't mean,' which is honestly why I never text. In fact... I'm a terrible texter...I let my phone die so I can have a reason not to text someone. Life seems so good without it sometimes. Even television for that matter... sure I like my occasional The Bachelor or E! news but I've come to the terms that I'm no longer watching t.v. before bed or while in bed. Such a distraction. In my down time I'd RATHER go for a walk, sit outside, be with my family - enjoy things that have meaning. Focus on the positive in my life... because guess what? There are things we cannot change no matter how hard we try. No matter how much we want something back or things to be different... they won't be. Let it be.



"And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree,
there will be an answer, let it be.
For though they may be parted there is still a chance that they will see,
there will be an answer. let it be."




"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"
