And so this is Christmas. And what have we done?
I reflect on those two simple lines every December.
It was 40 years ago this month that the world lost John Lennon.
To mark the anniversary, a slew of new Lennon books were released this year.
Lennon died in 1980, before I was born. People under 50 probably don’t remember him alive, though we all know his music and his legend.
On this weekend before Christmas (or xmas) I want to focus on Lennon.
Because this was a year we needed him — specifically the word he tried to spread.
The word was Peace.
