LOVE ONE ANOTHER
We grew up with a love for nature
In messages from the trees, the flowers…the ocean we discovered our salvation…
and once a feeling imprints onto your heart and soul…
It leads to a lifetime infatuation.
We also grew up with George Harrison and the Beatles…
Their music was the music of our generation…
and once music imprints onto your heart and soul…
It leads to a lifetime infatuation.
Music and nature…add love, and art and family
and you have what life is all about.
So when we heard there was an exhibit
That combined George Harrison’s music with his love of gardening….
Well…we had to check it out!
We loved walking through the gardens, listening to George’s music
reading poetry from his wife…
While learning how he bought Friar Park…an estate in England
and nursed it back to life.
It was a beautifully spiritual experience…as the sun lit the garden from above
the music, the garden the poetry…filled our hearts with love.
We love indigenous philosophy…George loved the philosophy of India…
but I think he would, with us, proclaim…
on peace…on love on compassion and happiness
their basic concepts are the same.
Love is at the center of every true religion…every great philosophy.
and love was there in the garden…for everyone to see.
From England across the world…
It’s a message he sent our far and wide…
Is it any wonder ‘Love One Another’ were the last words
George left us with…right before he died?
For love is the message George infused into his life…
and now every morning when we say Here Comes The Sun…
we share in his hope that in the same way it found him…and us
love will come to everyone
