Now you done it

Well I am 51 soon to be 52, vietnam vet, graduated in 1971. lived through the 60's culture shock. Had hair down to my butt until boot camp. Always thought being a hippie was a state of mine more than a Life Style.
Done almost everything I don't want my kids doing, especially since I am a new Grandfather. I remembr the 60's.... some good things and a lot that were not good. I remember segregation, water fountains marked for balcks only I remember my first sit in and why it happend, I did not do drugs, drank to much, did stupied things, regret some things, proud of some others. I never wavered in my beliefs and my convictions and yes still considered myself a hippie among other things...and the strange thing is that now as I am older my opiones are not nearly as strong as they were, I listen a lot more and hardly ever tell someone how stupid they are to thier face....hardly ever. :rolling:
