To my favorite Beatle, If not for that fateful night of December 8, 1980, you would have turned 71 today. But through your music and legacy, you have achieved immortality. And that, I think, is a greater achievement than your forty years of your earthly life. It’s not the number of years that you have lived. But it’s the way you lived those years. And the people whose lives were touched, affected, and inspired. And I was one of them. You may have long gone on the year when I was born but I just want to say that you have inspired me in many ways as a musician, peace activist, and an advocate of love and equality. Thank you for the music. Thank you for the legacy. Thank you for the inspiration. Happy 71st birthday John! Please sing with us as wherever you are we celebrate your birthday. All the best,John  Kickass digital portrait courtesy leonidafremov.deviantart.com

To my favorite Beatle,

If not for that fateful night of December 8, 1980, you would have turned 71 today. But through your music and legacy, you have achieved immortality. And that, I think, is a greater achievement than your forty years of your earthly life.

It’s not the number of years that you have lived. But it’s the way you lived those years. And the people whose lives were touched, affected, and inspired.

And I was one of them.

You may have long gone on the year when I was born but I just want to say that you have inspired me in many ways as a musician, peace activist, and an advocate of love and equality.

Thank you for the music. Thank you for the legacy. Thank you for the inspiration.

Happy 71st birthday John! Please sing with us as wherever you are we celebrate your birthday.

All the best,
John
