John Lennon – 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・・・
Aha・・・
Imagine there's no countries
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 fu・・・
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 you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the word・・・
You fu・・・
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
今日、8月15日は終戦記念日。
日中戦争が太平洋戦争へとつながり、日本人だけでおよそ310万人が亡くなった。このような過ちを決して二度と犯してはならない!
(歴史的事実を述べると、アメリカ合衆国に「戦線布告」する直前に真珠湾攻撃を行った事から、大国アメリカ合衆国と全面戦争に至る。これは個人的な意見だけど、戦争に反対して投獄された少数の人や赤ちゃんや幼い子供以外のほとんどの日本人にも、僅かながらの戦争責任があると言っても過言ではないだろう! 何れにせよ、人類の歴史を振り返ってみると、古今東西戦争の無かった時代はほとんどなく、今現在でもウクライナvsロシアの泥沼の戦いが続いている。人間は絶大な権利を握ると、時には悪魔にも変貌する。ヒトラー、スターリン、フセイン、チャウセスク、毛沢東、習近平、金正恩、プーチン、他多数、、、。このような権力者を暴走させない為にも、言論の自由は非常に大切だということは説明するまでもないだろう!
ロシアvsウクライナ戦争が1日も早く終わり、世界中が平和であることを切に願っています!

(Think about, um, the generations,
and that we want to make it
a better place for
our children and our children's children
so that they know it's a better
world for them.
I think they can make it a better place.)
There's a place in your heart
And I know that it is love
And this place could be much
brighter than tomorrow
And if you really try
You'll find there's no need to cry
In this place
You'll feel there's no hurt or sorrow
There are ways to get there
If you care enough for the living
Make a little space
Make a better place
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire
human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me
If you want to know why
There's a love that cannot lie
Love is strong
It only cares for joyful giving
If we try
We shall see
In this bliss we cannot feel
Fear or dread
We stop existing and start living
Then it feels that always
Love's enough for us growing
Make a better world
Make a better world...
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire
human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me
And the dream we were conceived
in will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed
in will shine again in grace
Then why do we keep strangling life
Would this earth crucify its soul?
Though it's plain to see
This world is heavenly
Be God's glow
We could fly so high
Let our spirits never die
In my heart
I feel you are all my brothers
Create a world
With no fear
Together we'll cry happy tears
See the nations turn their swords
into plowshares
We could
Really get there
If you cared enough for the living
Make a little space
To make a better place
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire
human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire
human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire
human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me
(You and for me)Make a better place
(You and for me)Make a better place
(You and for me)Make a better place
