Get My Soul Free

What a wonderful description of the feelings and beliefs inspired during that generation...from when I also evolved. Ironically, it was the best of times with our renewed belief of our freedoms(or the renewed fight for our freedoms/rights). But, as time went by, most of us got lured into the system in order to make a living, reluctantly letting our antiestablishment mentality slip through our fingers and our minds...so that it gradually became a long lost dream; only realized until just recently that we have lost touch.
I’ve now retired, escaping the chains of enslavement that we feared so during those times; and have learned the hardway, that we should have kept our finger, somehow, on the spirit of those times. We might be in better shape now. So, now I refer back to the old messages in the music and antiestablishment rhetoric of that era; and it all eerily applies to what is happening today....and that our generation’s warnings then, may apply more to us now than then; as the stakes are much higher now. I’m glad to see more than one of us of that generation has now come forward with this perspective and hopefully more will come out....afterall, it isn’t ’where did everyone go’...’it’s when will they come out’....as we did over 40 years ago. It’s now, or never...........
