Happy 70th Birthday, my sweet George ♥
Here it goes, me pouring my feelings out to you on tumblr. First of all, Happy Birthday to a wonderful human being, who even though I never met personally, I love with all my heart. Today you are 70 years old. To me, you arent gone…or dead, to me you are still very much alive. I can feel you through your music, the messages you gave to the world, your words, you are SO alive. Its been 70 years since you came to this world. Your birthday is something truly important to me because it is the day a man who has drastically changed my life for the better was born. You are an enormous inspiration to me, in various different ways George. First off let me say that your music has been a light in my life in times of darkness, in times where I honestly felt I had no hope…your music and you were always there for me and you picked me up and led me out of that darkness. The music and sound, the lyics, harmonies, and melodies of your music are something that I love and appreciate so so much. I admire you for being quite the honest bloke! There are many videos and tapes out there of you speaking about different things such as how you view the world, your spiritual beliefs, what you enjoy doing, how you like to live your life etcetcetc, and all of that has really helped me too. I love the way you speak about life and death, about what you believe in. Not to mention those videos where we get to see your humor, yet another thing I love about you! The fact that you loved nature and always wanted to be out in your garden really means something to me. Something special. I havent exactly quite put my finger on why this is but I think its becuase its something very spiritual and natural and relaxing. I just think its beautiful how you are world wide famous yet you dont act like you are. You are such a humble guy who just wants to be at home in his garden, meditating, rather than at a party with a bunch of famous people…reason #19892736 why I love you. You’re a great person, despite the errors, that everyone commits, you are wonderful and beautiful from the inside and out. I know you are because I can see it and because many of your personal friends have said it too. I love the fact that you were a vegetarian and didnt let people eat meat in your home, that isnt really a reason to love you but it definitely makes me feel closer to you becuase I am a vegetarian too (: There are so many reasons why I see you as an inspiration and as someone truly important to me. This is why your birthday is important to me. It is not just any birthday or any random day; It is the day someone who has helped me so much, more than anyone ever really has, was born. George, I know you may be thinking that I am just a random fan, and yes, I know I am, but you truly mean something to me. You mean A LOT to me. I think about you everyday, I listen to your music everyday. It makes me feel happy and it makes me feel closer to you. So again, Happy Birthday my love! I love you.
