I Am a Hippie At Heart

When I was in high school, I was punk and that continued throughout the military. But when I got out and had to adapt to civilian life, I became a conformist. I had to in order to provide. I'm now in a transition period of returning to punk, while embracing the hippie lifestyle. I'm a punk-hippie hybrid. It's pretty darn cool.

I lived at a house full of people at the corner of Haight St and Masonic in San Francisco and also in Berkeley during the years 1966 thru 1969. I worked at the Oracle and knew a lot of people whose names you might know. It was certainly an interesting time to understate it considerably.

It amazed and delights me that a few young people today are still interested in the hippie philosophy and lifestyle. Thanks for making me feel better. Due to health reasons, I am having a rough day. Your post really helped. Peace.

Your username makes you an instant friend 😉
Hehe... I wasn't a punk in school, people called me a hippy but there were very few of us hippies so the punk crowd was who I hung out with. We probably would have been friends :)

I think that's why I'm adapting well. I'm learning a lot about myself.

[c=#003BB2]hippies are cool, haven't ever met a real punk though [/c]

I wasn't even into the look. I was hardcore punk at heart.

[c=#003BB2]sounds good. Lol I think I could have fit in looks wise maybe but certainly not personality wise lol [/c]

Cool hybrid view, though I'm more of a prep-punk hybrid myself. Ha ha.
toddr13 · 46-50, M
Yes, indeed. Makes it easier to blend with more conservative circles.

Taking them down from the inside? 😉

Shaking things up a bit, when appropriate, yes.

I've always been a hippie at heart, lived in a commune for awhile back in the 70s. It'll probably always be a huge part of the way I see the world.

I'm learning that perspective now. It's amazing. It really is.
