😂 I was never a hippie, I wasn't born until '67, but I've loved that song from the moment I heard it when it came out in '93, I think, and it always stuck with me. I didn't realize why until I spiritually awoke four years ago. Sometimes the breadcrumbs of synchronicity are around for years before we notice them. Even the album cover art from the full record its on foreshadowed parts of my life that were to come.

Thank you so much for exploring through comment threads starting in someone else's post to arrive at my piece and to this point in Mark's and my thread.

I can't tell you things will ring true with young people. My 18-year-old son is voting for Trump, which is not an indictment of my son--it's an indictment of the system that lumps spectrums of ideas and beliefs into binary choices. If there were a center candidate representing a centrist party, my son would vote there.

I'll leave you with this song. Let me know if it impacts you. https://youtu.be/jfOfqs1rHXE?si=ZwK9nb2EczH7gbNc
