Let It Be....

I love the Beatles and I love the song Let It Be. It is a beautiful song and I find it incredibly moving. Get yourself a copy and enjoy the song.

Whenever I listen to this song now I think of Mary J. Shomon and how selfless she has been to the thyroid community and all because she wants us to have that most basic of human rights; a quality of life.

I know it is perhaps a literal step too far but "Mother Mary" is what I feel Mary is to the thyroid community. I am blessed to have found Mary twice in my life; first in print and then in the "virtual" world.

Perhaps the lyrics are uniquely personal to me and the influence Mary has had on my life during the darkest of times, if so I am the lucky one. Please read the lyrics below....

Mary, I dedicate this song to you....


Let It Be
Songwriters: Lennon, John Winston; McCartney, James Paul;


When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be

And when the brokenhearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be

For though they may be parted
There is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be

Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Yeah, there will be an answer let it be

Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be

Let it be, let it be
Let it be, yeah, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be

And when the night is cloudy
There is still a light that shines on me
Shine on until tomorrow, let it be

I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

Yeah, let it be, let it be
Let it be, yeah, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be

Let it be, let it be
Let it be, yeah, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be


Lennon and McCartney; there are no words....
