Hi Koan,

Up until the 60's all of the people in the entire world, for all of history, EVERYONE!!!!, lived their lives according to some sort of social - religious/dogmatic script handed to them at birth by their parents and society. Still true in most of the world today.

In the 60's people started figuring out that one does not have to live their lives according to a social script handed down to them by their society and parents. Each person has the right to live their lives however they want as long as they do not hurt anyone.


I agree... that was/is the core of it for true hippies. Although some were intellectual/readers, many others were more into living in the moment without what they considered "all that left-brain baggage".

The late 1960's was for me a wonderful time of idealism and innocence that I do not expect to experience again.
