Nah I'm not a hippie. I don't even think I know what one really is. Drummed into us that it was all about peace and harmony. On here I get the feeling it's all about drugs and multiple sex partners. I'm into that shit but I doubt that's the real deal. And then sometimes I see footage of hippies spitting all over people and stuff so I dunno, I don't know what the hell a hippie is.
It is nothing new. We have a private revolution going on. A revolution of individuality and diversity that can only be private. Upon becoming a group movement, such a revolution ends up with imitators rather than participants...It is essentially a striving for realization of one's relationship to life and other people... Bob Stubbs, "Unicorn Philosophy"
i wouldn't mind being stoned, but i'm not. but then, i'm not sure i get it either. been where? i look in a lot of corners and see a lot of things, but compromise is a big part of life unless you're a complete asshat. i play a lot of games. scoring is part of many games. i don't like cheating at games. of course, if you're speaking metaphorically, i break plenty of conventional life rules. all of the above. anyway, to answer the thread title, no i'm not.
Help Inspire Pursuing Peaceful Individual Existence I like to think so - though it is oh so difficult in todays society. Too many people think of themselves - solely "Irninsul"s post is quite a good observation of what the Youth of today think of the Hippies of / are Yesterdays In all, I just believe you are what you are - "To thine self Be True"
I am what I am but I am also what I am not. My friends have called me hippie, they've also called me poser, sinner, and saint. Of all these I am only what I need be.
my friends have called me a picker, grinner, lover, sinner, joker, smoker, and midnight toker. and then that one guy calls me maurice.
I believe in individual freedom, accountability, and doing good. By freedom I don't just mean the things I agree with. And I also believe in making money and returning force with force, so no I'm not a hippie. Just part hippie.
Am I a hippie? Somewhat. Other people don't see me as a hippie and I don't think of myself as one. I haven't looked like one for a very long time, but the hippie in me refuses to die. After all these years I still feel the spirit!
