Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we had a world with no one at war, “Peace” can you imaging this? I can and John Lennon believed it too. Being a famous musician whose music promoted peace he influenced millions with his strong lyrics “ All we are saying is give peace a chance.” There is no point of wasting time talking about what we can do and not acting on it. We all need to get involved and raise awareness about peace. Even today long after his death Lennon’s music is still alive and continues to promote world peace.
