Birthday Wishes for John - 2001
October 9, 2001 was the 61st anniversary of John Lennon's birth. His birthday is a time to celebrate his life and reflect upon what he meant to the world. If there ever was a time that John's message of peace was needed, it's now. John may be gone, but his spirit lives on.

Happy Birthday John Lennon. I hope you have a great birthday. I also wish Sean Lennon a very happy too. I really love John Lennon that my heart is going to explode. I really need his autograph to make my heart feel closer to my love John Lennon. I really need to live in Tittenhurst Park to feel the presence of John Lennon and Yoko Ono. I really need to go in the Dakota and look around. I really need to give John Lennon the biggest hug that can ever be given. Same goes for Yoko, my love. John, how much I really love you, I can not express. I so wish that you were here with me as well as your love Yoko. I so much wish I was with you and Yoko at the Imagine piano. I so much wish you were here to give me the biggest hug I could ever get. I wish I could give you that hug back. John Lennon -- I really have always had my heart on you. I give you all the love that I can give to you...all the love I have. Same goes to Yoko. I would love to meet you someday...someday very soon. I would love to show you that I so much love you and can't get over how much I really love you. I love just about everything about you, John and Yoko. I love your voices, your words, your music, your looks, your personality, your home, your children, your pets, your possessions, your fantasy, you destiny. I would love to live with you forever and ever and ever...I would love John, Yoko, Sean, Julian and me to live together forever.Oct 8, 2001

Happy Birthday, John. I know that you've boon gone for twenty one years, but your memory lives on. The way you smiled, the way you played the guitar, the voice that made so many cry, or laugh, or think. Thank you for having such an impact on so many people. I believe that if everyone believes it to be possible, we can give peace a chance. And I also believe that you'll always be remembered- by people of all ages. Goodbye, Farewell, and Amen, Mary.Oct 8, 2001

Dear John. There is no chance to be with you on your birthday. But today you're so close to my arms that I can touch you. I guess it's not only the day of your birth, it's the day of peace and love for the whole world. On this day we have another reason to get together and to think about you, about your life. And we have an opportunity to show our faces to the world and say that we love you and need you. Be with us today, John. Happy Birthday to you!Oct 8, 2001

Dear John, Happy Birthday, sir! I'm not going to be all creepy and pray to you or quote you, since I know it would weird me out if all these people were saying these things about me. But, I do want to say Thanx for inspiring me and so many others. We need more people like you around here, and I wish people would catch on to your message, especially now. Anyway, all the best wherever you may be. Hope you know how much you're appreciated.Oct 8, 2001

Dear John, Your words now take on a different meaning. Peace is the answer;but sometimes you've got to fight for peace when your enemy wants to destroy you. I think you would have realized this is a changed world, and that now that we have grown up there are less grey areas. Now we recogzine good and evil. You were good and you would have wanted us to fight for the good and the innocent, and for our freedoms. New York City has once again had its heart broken, but not our spirit. We will fight and unite. Everyone at the Tribute in Radio City missed you. Happy Birthday, John. Love, JudithOct 8, 2001

"Imagine" is singing in my head this day. And I just found it's almost John's birthday. I love loving spirits. The world needs them now more than ever.. But even people who think they are peacefull are now agreeing with destruction.. unbelievable.. Hope still lives on, let all people feel the words of imagine and the world will be as one Take care, TinkOct 8, 2001

John - all I can say is thank you for the amazing music you have given to the world. It has been uplifting and inspiring for myself and many others. Thank you so much!!! If you were alive now, I'd wish you the best birthday ever! But as it is, I'll be thinking of you on the anniversary of the day of your birth. I'll always be grateful for your music.

Happy Bday John, you still uplift everyone's spirits in this time of need. We all know you're up there in heaven, loving every word you're hearing from each of our prayers to have this war finished soon. But that's not going to happen. Disregard that comment, but it's hard to be at peace right now. Let your songs rule the world once again and let the younger generations love you as much as all of these crazy bagists and other fans already do!! Peace and Love, John Lennon, Forever You, BethanyOct 8, 2001

Even after 20 years, you continue to inspire us. You were truly one in a billion, and we really need sombody like you now! Seems that no musician these days is willing to take a stand, let alone write a decent song. (Daubert & Holcombe excluded, of course!) If only you were still around to help us make sense of things. And even though you never wanted to be, you've become a hero to so many people. You once said, "While there's life, there's hope." Let's hope people will keep that in mind... think for themselves... and use their lives to do something positive. Anyway, wherever you are, you are here! Happy birthday, John. And thank you.Oct 8, 2001

John Lennon once said something to the effect that although a genius may die,the world continues to gain from their genius.His spirit is of such magnitude that millions have gained immeasurably because he existed and selflessly shared his feelings with the world. Thank you,John,for helping to make my life happier and more meaningful.I hope I have the chance to meet you some day.Oct 8, 2001

John, What good are words at this moment? They merely complicate my thoughts. The world is a better place because you came into it on October 9, 1940. You lived and loved and did idiotic things and acted like a selfish pig at times, and for that you had greatness. I cannot begin to tell you how much you've meant to me throughout the past 6, nearly 7 years that I've been a fan. So I'll simply wish you and Sean a happy birthday, we miss you immensely down here, and I'll meet you in the next world.... Love OSOct 8, 2001

Your family has carried your vision, as all of your fans do. We still share your dream for peace. Happy birthday John, wherever you are, and you will always live in our hearts and our dreams. Thank you for being imperfect and showing us that we can make a difference. Shine on.Oct 8, 2001

Dear John- Ah, how I swore when I was little I'd never start a letter like that, but it's appropriate now. I'm not going to pretend you were holy, or shiny, we both know that isn't true. But I will say you've made a big impact on me, and me being the ego-maniac that I am, it's all that matters. Thank you, not so much for being born, but for *doing* something after you were born. Happy 61st, and until next time. ---Dakota, aka Jaina WinstonOct 8, 2001

Peace, live on. Freedom, as it says on my t-shirt. Of course, you weren't the world's most fantastic person at times, and could be really horrible, but that doesn't stop me from loving what you still managed to do. Remain always one of the three spirits I worship, who to me aren't dead, just echoing in another place, unforgotten. Happy birthday, and also to Sean - I hope you celebrate this birthday with your Dad beside you. To everyone: I love you all, and if you love John, or even just respect what he did or does, then thankyou, you are all wonderful. Shine on!Oct 8, 2001

The Tragic Genius He influenced a decade, Or, rather, more than one. This creative troublemaker had it made, Inspiring awe in everyone. At first, it was thought that he would never make it, Since his other talents he would squander. When given a chance for fame, he would take it, Showing how his brilliant mind could wander. He introduced himself to a rebellious world, Which in turn had the honor of meeting Lucy in the Sky. He preached love and peace among the acid-swirled; And when he fell for Yoko, only he understood why. Though a madman's bullet took him through the final portal, It couldn't stop him from becoming musically immortal. {Published November, 1997.}Oct 8, 2001

As a songwriter, I owe much of my vision and style to John, but as a man, I owe much of my concept of love to him as well. For a guy who was just "stringing words together" he certainly left us quite a legacy. We can look to almost any song and finding something pertinent to our current situation. Right now it's more like "How can we go forward when we don't know which way we're facing?" I lived in New York for 10 years and I know how much John loved the city. I know that he's with us now. I know that if he could he would tell all New Yorkers and all of us in the world to just stop beating our chests and waving our flags and go knock on our neighbors' door and say "Hello. How are you? Who are you?" I want to wish you all a happy holiday. I believe John was a gift to all of us, and his birthday has been a sort of holiday for me for a long time. I wish we had a white-haired, bearded Lennon to tell us, "Look, we made it through the seventies, what can possibly keep us down?" If nobody told you they love you today, look in the mirror and tell yourself. Peace, DHOct 8, 2001

dear john, what can i say? happy birthday, you dear, sweet man. 61, huh? hahaha...you're OLD! but i won't hold that against you...i'm getting older too. I didn't grow up with you while you were here, i was only a 4 year old little girl... but i am growing up with you now. You have been more to a father to me more than my own father has. In that sense we are alike. We have a lot of similarities...you and I...although you say anything fits into your life if you want it to. But you fit into my life, John...you have inspired me to be real...to seek love, to know HOW to love...I cannot express my feelings for you in any words known to man. If you were here, i'd put my arms around you and hold you for a little while. I think we could both use that right about now. Did you see Sean play the other night? he's pretty good...you should be proud. My little girl, Dylan already knows who you are. She's only 2 but sings yellow submarine at the top of her little lungs. Well, that's all. Hope whereever you are, your birthdays a good one...may you always be young and beautiful...and at peace. I love you, dream weaver....you are my hero, my inspiration and my father. Happy Birthday, dear man.Oct 8, 2001

i would just like to say that i'm too young to ever have got the full john lennon effect, but i'm not too young to realize what an incredible mark he made on the world. its a terrible shame that bastard mark david chapman took him from us...but he only killed his body, not his spirit. lennon's spirit lives and always will-its people like the lennon fans that will see to that. i still look up to john like he was here with us and i always will. he's a good influence and a damn good musician.

He has been and always will be the heart and soul to Musicians, and actors, his style so unique from anyone elses, so inspiering. If you were alive today John i would do all there is in my power to get a hold of you be it e mail, mail, phone, anything just to tell you how great you were are and always will be.

A happy birthday to John and Sean once again. Always a sad day, and I was born after he died... in the past year I traveled to England to see the land where he was from. He's inspired alot of what I do and alot of the world and the world still misses him, I think we've heard that alot in the last month, but it's true.Oct 9, 2001

I think that on this day especially, John's message of peace and love should be spread throughout the world. Not only was he an incredible musician and artist but he left an impression on the minds of everyone. Today as the bombing continues in Afganistan I think that we should all support those who are not directly involved in causing the war; the innocent people who don't deserve to die. Happy Birthday John, you are and always will be a hero to me :)Oct 9, 2001

What else can I say about you John. I'd say; you did it brother! Can u see all around you? people loves you and we're doing our best to make reality all what you've imagined. Though someone might say you're a dreamer, certainly you're not the only one. I'd like to say war is over, but we'll never give up. you can bet it friend! Please, let's put our minds together thinking about JohnandYoko's wishes for peace and love to the whole world, right now and the world will be as one! John: you are always on my mind Thank you Yoko for everything, happy birthday John and have a happy birthday Sean too. "Give peace a chance!"Oct 9, 2001

Happy 61st John. Give Peace A Chance. I'm very conflicted about this one right now. I want peace, but not at all costs.I still believe in you and most of what you said. But you aren't here to say what you might do 21 years on and a world of living since 1980. You might not want war, but somehow, I can't see you letting that attack on your hometown go by. Either way, we'll get thru this one, just like we always have and maybe when it's over peace will come. I know I feel we have to fight this time. I can still be a Lennon fan and disagree with you from time to time. You have to do your own thinking. That's what you always said. Serve Yourself. I think you would mistrust those who agreed with everything you ever said or did. Yes men I call them. You were a human, not a religion. And a damn fine human at that. So, I salute the human we lost on December 8th, 1980. God bless you. Happy birthday. TimOct 9, 2001

John would not be calling for War right now. Yes, he'd have been very angry that his beloved New York was attacked so visciously by terrorists. But John Lennon was THE Man of Peace for our generation and he'd never try to justify this call for war, no matter how popular it seems to be. Right now, it's so hard to "imagine" a way out of this mess. But that's exactly what we have to do. It's at times like these when we miss somebody like John Lennon the most.Oct 9, 2001

This day is as important to me as Christmas. Waking to the news of continued bombing on John's birthday seemed incongruous. I don't know how John would feel about this. He knew we had to fight Hitler. Still, if EVERYONE had listend to John all along, we wouldn't have this. The United States would have known that supporting Israel's domination over the Palestinians was wrong. And now we have all this. All I can do is pray. Guess who I pray to? Happy Birthday, John. Love always, WendyOct 9, 2001

Happy Birthday John, Happy Birthday Sean. John, you still shine on but you are also missed. You are still with us though...in the end, the love you take is equal the love you make...you made enough that it's still flowing through all the wonderful people writing here to celebrate your life, and so many more. I'm sorry in this new millenium that we've still not found peace. But I'm pleased for you that Yoko is as strong as ever, continuing your work, and hope you can see how talented and wonderful Sean had turned out to be. I love you still. PeaceOct 9, 2001

Although I was born almost 2 years after your death, I have discovered your wonderful words. They are what guides me through everyday and lets me know I am not alone in my hopes for peace. Hopefully, we will be able to experience peace and love someday in the near future. There are obviously many in support of your ideals - we just have to find a way to communicate and "Come Together".
