Day 5: What song inspires you.

Imagine- John Lennon

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

I was eight years old when I first sang these lyrics to a crowd full of Indians alongside some childhood friends. Crowds reaction: confused smiles. We were performing for a cultural program and as awkward performances go, this one ranked up there. Despite that, this song still moved me then as it does today. Maybe because the message behind the song can inspire both a young child and a cynical adult just as it did when the late great John Lennon penned it.

A world filled with peace and hope....just Imagine. And I do.
