John Lenon :: Imagine !

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no country
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if we can
No need for greed, no hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one.
~JOHN LENNON [9 October 1940 - 8 December 1980, IMAGINE]

METAPHOR :: Mrs. Moon !

ENGLISH METAPHOR :: A metaphor is another kind of comparison. It is actually a condensed simile, for it omits "as" or "like." A metaphor establishes a relationship at once; it leaves more to the imagination than a simile. EXAMPLE POETRY :: Mrs. Moon sitting up in the sky Little Old Lady rock-a-bye with a ball of fading light and silvery needles knitting the night. ~Roger McGough [Mrs. Moon]

The Neurotics In Us !

No good neurotic finds it difficult to be both opinionated and indecisive. ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960 The neurotic has perfect vision in one eye, but he cannot remember which. ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960 The real is very real to him, the unreal even more so. ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960 As we are human, we can't do what we can't do; as we're neurotic, we can't do what we can. ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960 The neurotic doesn't know how to cope with his emotional bills; some he keeps paying over and over, others he never pays at all. ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960 I'm afraid to win, and afraid to lose; I hate a draw and can't stop competing; otherwise I'm fine. ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960 Others settle for small rewards; the neurotic must always go for broke. ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook,

The Wolf Battle !

This is a story about an old man who explained to his young grandson, about a battle that was going on inside himself. The grandfather said, "My child, the battle inside me is between two wolves, one of whom is so evil, full of anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, hypocrisy, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego. The other is so good, full of remembrance of faith, joy, peace, love, compassion, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, and truthfulness." The grandson pondered for a minute and then asked: "Grandfather, which wolf will win the battle?" The grandfather replied simply, "The one I feed" EPILOGUE :: What the grandfather said is certainly FOOD for thought.
