I believe anyone who grew up in the late 50s, 60s, and 70s was blessed to experience extraordinary growth pains and pleasures of change in the US and the world. The 80s and 90s tried to hold on but we can clearly see how creativity, love for what, and who you feel is your own. The music, art, love, and respect are taking a downturn. Many of us had hope for progress and a better world just over the horizon. These days when we see another brother or sister who shared those years with us, we nod, say something accepting, and acknowledging with respect. I often feel sorry for these newer generations. They just don't know!
