The End (Parrot)


"The End" ●
"Everything will be ok in the end. If it's not ok, its not the end."
 I remember when I first read this quote, I think it was in the 70's. The Beatles had made a recent trip to India to meet with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, and I read an interview with John Lennon in one of those 'teen' magazines that were popular then. 
I forgot about it until a few years ago, my friend and blogger Paula Guhin from Mixed Media Manic posted an image of the quote on her blog. I remember liking it as much that day as I did when I first saw it in the 70's.

I have researched this quote several times, and what I have found is that it has been quoted many times, by many people in many different countries and cultures. Although I have not been able to ascertain who originally said these words, I like attributing it to John Lennon.

 Alphabet blocks spell out the quote in a deep picture frame that has been covered in artist papers. A wooden napkin ring parrot that has been fitted with wooden drawer pulls covered in green tissues, embellish the piece.
