When crises strike and systems collapse, midwives step up — delivering essential sexual, reproductive, maternal and newborn health services that save lives. Whether during climate disasters or conflict, midwives are often the first — and sometimes only — responders for women.

On Tuesday’s Day of the Midwife, join UNFPA in thanking midwives around the world for their important mission.

The first signs are often right in front of us, hidden in plain sight. When words like these connect, they tell a deeper story. Stay aware, speak up, and help break the chain.

IMAGINE. BY JOHN LENNON 🎵

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living live for today

Imagine there's no Country
It's not hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you will join us
And the world will live as one

Imagine there's no possession
I wonder if you can
No need for greed and hunger
A brotherhood of humanity
Imagine all the people, sharing all the world.



He wrote and sang it — released in 1971 on his album _Imagine_. John Lennon co-produced it with Phil Spector and Yoko Ono.

The song became one of the most famous anthems for peace, unity, and a world without divisions.

Lennon himself said it was "virtually the Communist Manifesto," but also a positive vision — imagining a world with no borders, no greed, no hunger, and people living as one.
