his attention turns to the opposite , casting a hint of amusement in his eyes through his round glasses . lennon takes a step closer , offering a warm smile before answering . ❛   well , syd , you can call me john . no need for formalities ' ere .  ❜ his voice has a soft tone , trying to reassure him . ❛   i ' ve always been a fan of curiosity . it keeps things interesting , ya know ?  ❜ he makes a small gesture to the contrary for him to go ahead and ask his question , while lennon already does it with his relaxed but still attentive posture . he leans in slightly , his eyes sparkling with anticipation . ❛   what ' s on your mind ?  ❜

John Lennon - Penny Lane (1967)

❛   i guess ’ s a combination of habit and a built-in coping mechanism . my work and personal responsibilities took up most of me time , and weekends were often just an extension of me daily activities .. it is curious how our body adapts and becomes an internal clock .  ❜

"I've had a lot of time to think," said John peering at me through his wire-rimmed specs, "and only now am I beginning to realise many of the things I should have known years ago. I'm getting to understand my own feelings. Don't forget that under this frilly shirt is a hundred-year-old man who's seen and done so much — but at the same time knowing so little."

he leaned back , letting his hands gesture animatedly .. as if tracing the swirling patterns of an ethereal kaleidoscope . ❛   the swinging sixties .. oh , what an era  ! ❜ a mischievous grin curled upon john ’ s lips as he emphasized his point . ❛   the world spun on the axis of psychedelia , and we were caught in the whirlwind of it ’ s kaleidoscopic embrace .  ❜ his eyes sparkled with a touch of rebellion , a sense of longing and determination filled the air as john ’ s words hung delicately between them . ❛   i believe tha ’ it is in those moments of reflection and solitude tha ’ we rediscover our true essence . our capacity for creativity and our ability to navigate the ever-changing world with purpose and authenticity . only then , can we simultaneously embrace change without sacrificing o͟u͟r͟ humanity and becoming mere automatons ?  ❜ he concluded , turning his attention to his companion . ❛   you will see tha ’ everything will turn out as you plan it .  ❜
