Great observation. Back in the sixties and seventies people everywhere were trying to "FIIINND THEMSELVES". In truth they were looking for the thing they were meant for. Their own little nook where they could succeed and thus find fulfillment. Good job here. God Bless, JB

The sixties are famous for their 'Flower Power' - 'Make love not war' but maybe through all of this haze that they smoked, got through to the seventies without too much of a hitch. Your comment is also very observant Judy - in fact I love your answer!. Love and hugs, Jenny.

Good Morning Alexis - This is a strong statement that has truth and much worth. It also serves as a reminder to live for oneself and to be happy with the present. Thank you for sharing.
