Lovely thoughts, WWW.<br /><br />I'm reminded of last night's viewing of a DVD of a concert held in 2002 in memory of George Harrison (Albert Hall in London) when George's son Dhani appeared with lots of his Dad's peers.<br />The likeness was uncanny. <br /><br />Again, I saw some pics of celebs who attended the recent Kennedy Honors show in Washington (?) and Paul Mccartney's son James was pictured - such a creepy likeness to his Dad.<br /><br /><i>There's a powerful connection to the past in the faces of the young.<br /></i><br />For sure!!Twilighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138621610593773784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14874528.post-51822882943554646702010-12-12T14:07:28.849-03:302010-12-12T14:07:28.849-03:30beautiful post ♥beautiful post ♥CorvusCorax12https://www.blogger.com/profile/02705986279180729268noreply@blogger.com
