I love studying about the 60s in California or NY because of the changes affecting us since that era. Radical thinking without complacency was accepted. Whatever you wanted to talk about was not always judged unfairly.
Divorce was not so common before the 60s, but it very likely comes from fickle-thinking, feminism, or acceptance of divorce as the "thing to do" when you are not happy. Freelove was great, when done with the same open-mind and when done in honesty. While I am not totally against feminism, my view is that it was wonderful when a woman could accomplish more, however, sometimes I still want to go back to where the woman could stay home with family and where the man was actually wanting to take care of her. It gave a man alot of pride and purpose to have someone who NEEDS him, instead of the opposite.
In conversations with college students who are like 60s thinkers, I find that there is quite a few that want to go back to having some traditional values and maintaining unbroken homes. They want to ask how to make things work from older folk like me. Many people my age are like they already know it all or never ask things of anyone, which is sad. As like the 60s, open-mindedness to me means you are not "stuffy", not arrogant, not snobby, but it means you are also the inquiring type. Asking about things that matter should never be an issue. I don't know it all, I just write viewpoints. Most of you just read and don't tell me what you think, but I would love to hear from you.
Back to the 60s, I just love people's passion from back then where they were not afraid to fight for causes. It is great to be passionate about things instead of being like a ghost. It is great to learn something from the "reckless abandon" and occasionally take our minds to that place known as "freedom". And, as always, I believe sex is a big part of keeping a couple together. Keeping their house a happy home instead of a place of dread. Wildness in bed, open-mindedness, love, peace, radical thinking, creativity... What happens in bed to stay in bed !.....Keeping bonds and making them stronger.....What a better world this would be if we focus on this !!!
Free the mind and the body..... Peace and Love to you all !!! Love the one your with and express how much you care for them !!! ........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
