Today is the Buddhist holiday Bodhi Day. It celebrates the day Siddhartha Gautama had become enlightened and became the first Buddha. Some Buddhists could celebrate his birth, death, and enlightenment on one day. It is celebrated on the 8th day of the 12 months on the lunar calendar for Mahayana Buddhists. Japan had it applied to the Gregorian calendar, which makes it on December 8th. Bodhi Day is more of a day for meditation. 

John Lennon was assassinated on December 8, 1980. He was assassinated because the killer, Mark David Chapman, was envious and enraged by his lifestyle and that the Beatles were larger than Jesus. Lennon has definitely impacted the world in terms of music. I find his song Imagine could be inspiring

 Remember to do as much as you could do to help get signatures.This petition got 50 signatures the other day because of a $5 promotion. Sharing on social media would help. More you share on social media, the harder it would miss and more likely people you know will sign. Leaving a comment would give more of a reason to sign besides what I have put down
