Hippy happiness

Love-ins
The hippies invented the love-in: a "gathering to engender and promote love, as for the satisfaction of the participants or as a form of social activism". (American Heritage dictionaries). Well, this is amazing: people who don't know each other gather to create & promote love in their hearts. Organizing an event for creating love is so beautiful and special. It implies inclination to love in the participants. As they gather to give in to this sentiment, express it, let it flow and grow and embellish. At its best, this kind of love practised by the Hippies is of spiritual flavor. It reminds of the love embodied by the Boddhisatvas, Jesus, the Sufi sheiks... The love-ins have disappeared. Will they ever reappear and thrive? I wish they could, but anyway they inspired the Summer of love Festival in San Francisco. At the 2007 edition, Starra Rubenstein was there. She's a cool photographer. Some of her photos of that love-in are in this slideshow. The other photos and her other superb albums are at http://www.flickr.com/photos/sarastarra/.
