“I will stop being nostalgic on Sunday”
:)) You decide the time you'll stay nostalgic? Well, why not. I imagine you planning your week: say ok until sunday to sunday, I'll be moony, or?

I love hendrix and all the musicians about that period. What a date must be! When I was a teenager, I longly wandered , why we couldn't so live always that way, within art of life to share.
Even if I hadn't lived that moment, I've always felt nostalgic about. Curious.

“I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends”.

Thank you Paulo.

Freedom of that time (spirit) lives still within my soul…melencholy perfume of bodies,
patouli,and hair. accepted free expression…
Feeling special and so righteous.

Oi Paulo, back to the past, eu estava pensando porque vc quis entrar para a Academia Brasileira de Letras, so hard… Vc me parece uma pessoa tão desprendida para ficar ligando para essas coisas, mas isso é um julgamento e eu não deveria ficar julgando, não é mesmo? Um abraço.

I think it is the season for remembering. I always feel deeply the change in the sunlight and my emotions, my body, is often flooded with memory. Sometimes we dive into our past like diving for pearls.
we hold our breath and reach for treasure, how beautiful is hindsight.

Blessings~

I have just listened to Joe Cocker’s song. I like it and I think we dancing it at the ..parties… The above ‘you tube’ S. Richter playing Chopin’s Revolutionary Etude was the closest I was… with revolution!! Then married in 1970 and a mother of a daughter in 1971, [everything within the ...proper time!!!] as it was proper… LOVE, THELMA

A couple of years earlier in 1967, not quite a musical, but the movie “The Graduate” starring Dustin Hoffman, was released. Several of Simon & Garfunkel’s hits are in it.

Could you tell us about the time you were a hippie?How was it?I am 19 so I have only seen films about them.I see them as people with long hair,ribbons,round sunglasses,revolutionaries of their time, demanding peace,free love.But you were one of them and I am sure you know better…
Love,
Lia
