yes, stereotypes are bad and a huge burden, and yes, they will probably never go away, but hey! isnt that what gives the general hippie a purpose? something to fight? to question? to make right and justify?

if you keep your head above the empty meaningless derogatory comments, then youll only help the notion that if a group of people recognise the evil in society and put their minds and hearts together, and lead by example, teaching what they feel to be good, then we can change the world!

another of my observations is that of what most people hear and see about hippies, mostly from media, there are hippies in a drum circle, defining the word 'chill.'

most of what ive seen leads me to believe that the general hippie is indeed a pascifist and defines the word 'chill.'

what does this have to do with smokin pot? i believe, also from expeirence, that when i smoke pot, i tend to be very calm and easy-going.

from here, people dont realise that some people are always calm and eay-going, and they appear to alway be high to the outside public.
