What is a hippie?


I belong to several hippie group lists and was reading some of the hippie yuppie email from the list and was a bit put off by what was said. Yes, yuppies like to pretend they are hippies.

OK, so what is a hippie or what is supposed to be a hippie. Most people would say a hippie is zonked out on drugs, living off of welfare and is a pretty useless item in society. So, if thats not a hippie, what then is a hippie.

I guess one would say that a hippie is one that lives off the land or rather lives in a companionship relationship with Mother Earth. A person who has a spiritual connection to Mother Earth or the Universe and accepts their duties as a caretaker of Mother Earth and All it entails.

To be continued. . . .
