The End of my Hippie Fascination
Ever since I developed an appreciation for classic rock, I have had an embarrassingly powerful fascination with the hippie movement of the ‘70s.

Shakespeare
“Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor playerThat struts and frets his hour upon the stage,And then is heard no more.
