IPYG got lessons from people who have eyes opened to the realities of life.

IPYG wants all youths to have a mind about peace.
Before us, however, there were lots of people who had opened their eyes to the world.
Today I want to share the one of them.
The man is John Lennon.

 In short, he was an English musician, singer and songwriter who rose to worldwide fame as a founder member of the rock group the Beatles, the most commercially successful band in the history of popular music. With Paul McCartney, he formed a songwriting partnership that is one of the most celebrated of the 20th century.

When the group disbanded in 1970, he left his famous as a celebrity behind working for peace.
On 9 November 1966 Lennon met Ono. Lennon went to the Indica Gallery in London, where Ono was preparing her conceptual art exhibit, and they were introduced by gallery owner John Dunbar.

There are many ways that peace workers achieve their aim.
IPYG is running some projects for peace to win against indifference.
How can IPYG break people's indifference?

These two people used their power for peace to get attention of media.
Lennon and Ono used their honeymoon as what they termed a "Bed-In for Peace" at the Amsterdam Hilton Hotel; the March 1969 event attracted worldwide media ridicule.
Lennon wrote and recorded "Give Peace a Chance". Released as a single, it was quickly taken up as an anti-war anthem and sung by a quarter of a million demonstrators against the Vietnam War in Washington, DC, on 15 November, the second Vietnam Moratorium Day.

Sadly, it's difficult to understand their main message to people so, it got into trouble.
IPYG think it seems to be chasing the same thing between John Lennon and us.
One day on watching TV, I found this song telling people what IPYG want to say.

I quote a line from his song, imagine.

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Yes, we IPYG do believe someday you'll join us and the world will be as one.
