"Happy Woodstock Day....48 years ago today the concert opened! One of my most prized possessions is my original Woodstock poster! It defined my generation! And it appears to be defining me NOW! It is a bit faded, has some wrinkles and is curling at the corners!"
This poster resides in my bedroom and is one of the first things I see every morning. It is a marvelous reminder of my younger days and all of the excitement, the breaking rules, the music and the movements for peace that existed then. I wonder if I would be as open and accepting of new and different ideas because of this generation.
But, for a very few moments, every morning my memories fly back to a time where I was free and fearless…and I carry a little part of that with me every day!
"Woodstock" Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
