War is over (if you want it) Happy Christmas from Sara 2016




As this Christmas comes to an end, I hope that all of you visitors of Meet the Beatles...for Real had a wonderful time and if you celebrate this holiday, I hope you were able to spend time with family and friends.  I also hope that Santa was able to sneak a little Beatle goody into your stocking this year.


Every year at Christmas, I think about War is Over (if you want it).   I have expressed on this blog that my feelings are that for there to be peace on earth, we need to start with ourselves and end the wars that are going on in our lives.

I started to think about what wars I have going on and I began to think about my online life.   Having a somewhat popular blog has given me the opportunity to meet so many amazing people both in real life and through emails and messages.   But I also have met some not so nice people.  

I want to publicly apologize to Dirk Bock for being so rude to him for the past 10 years.   He has said some things that have deeply hurt my feelings and just plain annoyed me, but my response to him online and what I have said to others about him  has not been kind.    I hope that Dirk can accept my apology and that we can go into 2017 with a new outlook.    I hope that he will being to post nicer comments and I my responses to him will nice as well.    We are both Beatles fan and we have a lot to share.   Neither one of us knows more than the other---we just know different things.    

How about you?   Have you been kind to everyone in your life both off and on line?    Something to think about as we begin this new year.

I wish each and every one of you a very happy Christmas.  

Peace and Love,

Sara S.

  2. Honestly Dirk can be very rude, condescending even. He thinks he knows everything. He steals, yet he claims he got it from another source but the writing would be the way I created. He even took my artwork without asking nor credit. He claims I stole from him but I know I didn't- I know exactly where I get my pictures and information from.

    I will reveal my identity to only you, Sara, on Facebook message after this comment gets published. It looks like you had a similar experience as me when it comes to Dirk. I, for one, am not apologizing to him. He thinks he is always right, even when I prove him wrong.

  4. Happy New Year, Sara! You have a good heart. I, personally, tend to carry grudges and act very passive-aggressive if someone does me wrong. Don't think I'll change that. Lol
    If however they are willing to do good after the fact I am quick to forgive.
    Do whatever makes your life easier and what makes you feel good.
