Music was important and influenced so many thoughts and actions....<br />Now the music has changed so much, as has the pace of life and the fears for the future.<br />An excellent look back to less stressful times:)<br />Eileen<br /><br />Sorry for the late Blog visit, but I was in Ghent, Belgium attending an open-air Leonard Cohen concert. I am still dreaming with the music!!!<br />Thanks for your faithful visits to my poems Sherry.<br />Eileen:)Eileen T O'Neill .....https://www.blogger.com/profile/03325632298717325699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777854594703553858.post-49045971761507008652012-08-22T05:51:46.366-07:002012-08-22T05:51:46.366-07:00I was just a child then, but you did put me there!...I was just a child then, but you did put me there!Laurie Kolphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07494759781947881343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777854594703553858.post-37381197307305480012012-08-21T20:58:27.822-07:002012-08-21T20:58:27.822-07:00Ah - this took me back too ... my fav Beatles song...Ah - this took me back too ... my fav Beatles song ever was this one (even if it really ) ... very nice Sherry!S.E.Ingrahamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02135141369161538082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777854594703553858.post-91366683839446986742012-08-21T13:53:56.624-07:002012-08-21T13:53:56.624-07:00My step father hated the 60's.

The flower children environment made my transition more amiable. But then, that ugly arm of war and the draft strangled my temporary reprieve from both my struggle of identity in a new world and my growth as a human being. <br /><br />'Where have all the flowers gone, long time passing'? <br /><br />Unfortunately, rearing its ugly head of prejudice, racism and inequality being perpetuatated in an insidious manner toward ethnicity, race and women, is a subject matter of an op-ed I'm constructing to submit for publication. I thought this had been reconciled by 'America'.<br /><br />Wonderful attention to this reflecive piece, mi amiga.Marcoantonio Arellano (Nene)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10713672589582754484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777854594703553858.post-47348854220098701192012-08-21T08:26:55.621-07:002012-08-21T08:26:55.621-07:00Good thoughts, Sherry!
Growing up in rural Ontario...Good thoughts, Sherry!<br />Growing up in rural Ontario, my friends & I had a window seat on what was happening in the world through radio & TV. <br />Music, especially the Beatles, was a powerful link to the bigger picture. Expo 67 brought the world focus to Canada for a few minutes as our country celebrated 100 years of Canada!<br />Despite all the negatives of news today, I am reassured by the new generations coming along as these younger individuals take up the task of carving out their own lives.

I love all of their solo performances, too. <br /><br />Perhaps Sherry, new, great and honestly good leaders will emerge, we must believe they will. I do!<br /><br />This was such a great work you did and it was a pleasure reading.

'Please,please me', one of the earliest was wonderful before bedtime. We had 'lights out' at 9.30pm during our college days and that song lulled us to sleep.Thanks for the memories.

That, I think, sometimes is the job of the younger generation (that once was us): to really have that hope!! To really believe it is possible.
