Imagine if only he'd have lived. Imagine that the "bed in for peace" had taken place before the build-up for war with Iraq? Imagine if his voice were still around to sing songs about his beautiful boy. Or that we can live in peace. Imagine any other man singing about how woman is the "n!@@er" of the world. Imagine if we all just gave peace a chance. Imagine if only violence hadn't taken this talented and wise man from us. Imagine that.

He was a great inspiration to me and along with Jesus, his politics, spirituality and activism led me to the world vision I have now.

So, no he didn't do miracles of great proportions, but he did help create a miracle in my life. His words were there to inspire me and teach me. He was able to transform his life from a self absorbed rock musician to a man who lived for peace and justice. He, with the help of his soul mate Yoko, inspired a generation of hippies and activists. Imagine.
