Edward Croft – Though, I was born a little late for the full blown hippie movement, I always was drawn to it. Not for the drugs and sex, but for the philosophy. I truly believe that we can come together as one people, one heart, and find solutions for this world. I find that my knowledge of Native American ways ties right in with that, as they were deeply spiritual and honored the land.  I have always called myself a hippie at heart. I believe in peace, love and harmony. Oh and great music.
My heart to your heart, one heart, one spirit.
