“Somewhere along the way, Nash, like many of us, got old. But that hope never did.”

In my life, the 60s & 70s was a very special time. … Flattop & burr … to hair. Latin- memorizing altar boy to knowledge-seeking skeptic. Wannabe priest/military pilot to wannabe social justice/ecological activist toward pacfism (Positively Ethical Applied Community Ecology/PEACE). Young patriot to a mostly life-long protester involved in pragmatic idealistic change of Eaarth for the better … for ALL, including other species. Disciplined competition to alcohol-liberating adventures (I never got really comfortable with marijuana … and didn’t try any social drugs other than alcohol & marijuana.). A breaking away from the chains of the 50s, Dad, Devine, Texas, the U.S., and The Church.
……………………
[Obviously, I guess, … I’m not trying to paint a picture of gruel to peaches & cream. Moreover, much of this is a “normal” progression from childhood to adolescence to adulthood* (*if such really occurs, especially in today’s world amongst a majority of We Haves).
And I do have a special & deep love for Dad, Devine, Texas, the U.S., and The Church!]
