I got True Flower Child. Very true, I’m a PROUD hippie. I was born in the late 80s, but I don’t relate to millenials at all. I was raised listening to music from the 60s and 70s and watching TV reruns and movies from that era too. I’ve embraced hippie culture fully ever since I was a teenager, and yes, I’m a HUGE and proud pot head as well. You’ll often see me wearing bellbottom pants, a tie dye shirt, a necklace with a pot leaf on it, peace sign earrings, and a beaded bracelet that was handmade by a Lakota Sioux man (and sometimes I’ll swap out the peace sign earrings for a pair made by him as well). My husband was born in 1988, but he was raised much differently than I was. He recently told me that I’m an “old soul” and it seems like we come from two totally different generations sometimes. I agree 100%.
