A Wish List on the Wall of ‘Hippieville’

(Peace Art by Kelly Anne Tearney)

En route to our weekend get-a-way at a friend’s house in the Catskill mountains (of New York), we made a spontaneous detour to Woodstock.  That’s right, the hippie concert area of the late 1960’s.  What a great step-back into time.  Tie-dyed colors galore, guitars decorating street posts, smells of incense hitting all our senses as we felt swooned back to ‘those days, guitarists playing on the streets the songs of yesteryear.  Nostalgia at its best.

What moved me to post about this was what I saw upon entering a really neat coffee house.  This is on the wall as you step into the corridor:    p10100073

It’s an earasable fill-in-the blank.  Now if the colors, music and smells weren’t enough to fill me with joy during our brief baby-boomer appreciation walk, seeing this sealed it for me.  Some of you may think, ‘how crazy is that’, but it was ‘so me’ to fall into this.

I hope you’ll take a stab at filling in your blank to this statement in the comments below.  Before I Die…..

It also just so happened to be totally in place for hubby Alan to be wearing his sneakers here:

  1. Harriet, now this brought a smile to my face. Love the ‘bucket list’ and for me, the thing I want to be is a truly awakened being…in this lifetime please. 🙂

    1. Hi Elle,
      I love your fill-in-the-blank – “to be a truly awakened being”. As far as I’m concerned you’re already there. There’s always more and more to climb and grow, but that’s certainly how I would describe you.
      Thank you.

  2. Nice work here Harriet,
    A little nostalgia… and a little reminder that we are only here for a finite time.
    be good to yourself
    David

    1. Hi David,
      I find it a great reminder that encourages us to live better while we still can.
      Thanks for popping by and sharing the ‘nostalgia’.
