i feel the way that the world is being treated is unfairly with pollution and other things like it, i hate the way goverments run countries like U.S, and i had long hair(has been short for a week), and get called hippie all the time but ive never taken drugs which is considered a big part of being a hippie so after all that i dont know whether to call myself a hippie or not (if you dont count geographical or age rules)

Not within the parameters outline by Maani (born too late) but I've always had a hippyish outlook and have lived the lifestyle. Either that, or I was a slacker about 10 years before everybody else.

Nahhh...as a teenager in the 80's I was a total metalhead,the only thing I had in common with hippies back then was a love of good bud.

I hold much sympathy for the original hippies who changed the world more than they are actually credited for! Most gave up in the mid-70's , because they had not seen many direct changes, but in the long run , the summer of love had lasting effects on our society (not all good) but if it had not happened , I would hate this world.
The whole ecology awareness and the extended freedom we enjoy are direct consequences of that "upheaval".

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

my parents were hippies. that includes everything, from "sweet smoke" to "love-ins". they were both 18 when I was born in Dec 68 and lived in the center of the movement. by the age of 3 I had seen more sex-orgies than most people will ever see in their whole lives. I definitely had a weird and educating childhood

"Death to Utopia! Death to faith! Death to love! Death to hope?" thunders the 20th century. "Surrender, you pathetic dreamer.”
