We here at Risky.TV, like most we think, are suckers for a dazzling, harmonic, uplifting song<\/strong> \u2212 especially remakes or multi-artist spins on classic’s\u00a0 like “Imagine.”<\/p>\n

As Cailyn Finke<\/a>, from FaithTap.com, writes: “Lennon’s inspiration for “Imagine” came about when he tried to envision a world with only peace, and without the division among all people. The song was released later that year [1971] in October, and it was an instant hit.”<\/p>\n

Yet, in 1967, John Lennon also wrote a song called, \u201cAll You Need is Love.\u201d And, as Mark Manson observes<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“He also beat both of his wives, abandoned one of his children, verbally abused his gay Jewish manager with homophobic and anti-semitic slurs, and once had a camera crew film him lying naked in his bed for an entire day.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So, what’s that about us being kind of a buzz kill on the very magic you hear coming out of the 5-person crew, Pentatonix, above?<\/p>\n

Well, we also like being realists, or proponents of teaching and sharing why, when energy is so on the edge of extremes in somebody (ie, preaching peace, love, harmony), oftentimes, the Shadow Side<\/a> is deeply repressed.<\/p>\n

Is there a way to appreciate, accept and understand how to balance that out \u2014 not only within yourself, but in how you judge it in others?<\/p>\n

This website, ThankGodi.com<\/strong><\/a>, is as good of a place as any to get a handle on how such seemingly<\/em> opposite forces exist…<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
