I used to hear that a lot...or people asking me where they could buy some...funny thing is , I never got into the drug scene ..I only tried weed a couple of times and found out it wasnt my thing...but people assume if your a hippie that you do drugs.
For me personally, it's a state of mind. I have always had a longing for pastures green and living life in as natural a way as is possible. Meaning not relying to heavily on TV the net etc, for entertainment. I like to busy myself with my artwork and read avidly. I enjoy my enviroment and take long walks through local woodland and farm land. I eat fruits/vegetables in season and eat free range and organic meat and fish, well organic whatever I can get my hands on. I actually grow herbs and fruit myself . I have always recycled, and way before it became 'trendy' and look out for people. For me, this is the natural way to live, others have tagged me as being hippyish. I don't mind at all! I am happy as I am.
