    To me peace means calmness not only within yourself but outside as well, where everyone in the world can gather together and join hands without discrimination, prejudice, or racism, but with love. Love means the ability to care for others regardless of their background, ethnicity, religion, race, or sex; to care about the person themselves and how they play a part in our world. If everyone can accept peace within themselves first, then with others, and learn to love themselves as well as others, then it would be a perfect harmonious world. One can only hope.

    PEACE: accepting everyone no matter what, loving fellow man, striving for PEACE day after day.....inner harmony that you project to everyone you meet. LIVE AND LET LIVE.

    LOVE: A want to let others know that you're with them, not against them. Adoring even the smallest, simplest things in life.

    Peace, Love, Live and Let Live, are idealistic hippie stuff indeed.

    Actually, the hippie era only lasted a little more than 2 years.

    It was symbolized by The End of Hippie March, on October 6, 1967,
    at the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood, in San Francisco, commemorating the anniversay of making LSD illegal.

    mmhmm, i know about that. we're in a whole new-age "hippie" world, if that makes any sense to ya.
    it's so important to let others live and not to judge. that's something i always live by, and i'll teach it to my kids.

    So, how do you redefine "hippie" in a new-age sense of the word?

    Is there anything new, to the definition of "hippie"?

    well, you were talking about the end of the real hippie era; i was agreeing. i didn't mean the WORD "Hippie" has changed; i just meant the times and way people look at hippies has changed. it's like they don't believe we can make a difference, that we're a joke when in the 60's we were, i believe, more accepted and common.
    sorry to confuse you lol =]

    I don't think the way society has looked at hippies has changed, neither has the hippies changed in their way of looking at society.

    Otherwise, the definition of "hippie", would be meaningless...
