Dear John,
 
There was something about you, the first time I knew of you that struck me. I couldn't tell what it was, but it felt like a mixture of love, knoweledge, and admiration.
 
No, I never knew the man who changed the world with his music and insights, but I feel as if I do.
 
You see, it shows through the general tarnish that this world has brightly. John Lennon, you were something else. Something new and fresh that was misunderstood by so many. you wouldn't believe how people miss you. Paul, george and Ringo are always talking about how much they will miss you as the years pass, but they are all doing ok.
 
We all miss you. the regular people in the world will never forget the working class hero that was you. John lennon, you ARE something else. And it shows.
