Oh My!

I was also a bit too young to go to Woodstock. I was angry and rebellious for more than a few years. I did make it to the Atlanta Pop Festival but it wasn't the same as Woodstock. I turned away from my upbringing for awhile, but finally found my way back to God.

I also felt the same connections with others of my generation in August when I went to Piedmont Park to see Paul McCartney. I am not sure when we turned old, this generation of ours who didn't trust anyone over 30!

 Sure. You can share peace with younger generations love. And now you can talk about the CSN&Y concert to all. BC-A, Bill’s RJJst

So much good is done by parents saying "no." I once wanted mom

to give me permission to do something that was bad (at the time) and she told me "no."  I wanted her approval and decided to follow her counsel and not do this one thing I wanted to do...it truly changed my life. 

Welcome aboard...that was a good read!

I am sure they knew! Who would have thought the 60's rockers would be 60! I, too, was just a bit too young to travel to Woodstock! I believe no is very important to exercise when raising children! Mine got plenty of it! sam

Pastor Sylvia, that was a delightful story to read.  it sounds like your parents knew you very well.  I think now more than ever we need to hear stories like this.  Times are truly changing.
