Growing Up in the 60s Wasn't All Fun and Games

by David Dilley

Overview

Life stared with a violent direction and was headed down a path to personal destruction before things happened that changed that direction forever. It was the 60s and young people were questioning their beliefs for the first time. Music was an anthem they sang in unison to represent their differing point of view. The old establishment values were no good any more, they were just not cool. Now new values were need to replace them, but where would these new values come from? In the midst of chaos and the confusion of many voices, all shouting their own point of view, one person learns to reject the violent upbringing he has experienced and look for a better way. An interest in music and some experimenting with LSD will begin to change the direction he is heading and provide a path that moves him far beyond teenage naivety.

About the Author

I grew up in the 60s and spent most of my teenage years playing in rock-n-rolls groups and experimenting with hallucinogenic drugs. I attended college in several locations but after earning over 166 credit hours I never obtained a degree because I changed majors 8 times. Through several people I had known I came to work and live at the PTL property run by the Bakers in South Carolina. After the public downfall of the PTL organization I begin working in the computer field and wound up in a high paying corporate job. I spent 10 years with a major telecommunications company, but was eventually laid off and had to scramble to find work. After the millennium I built a computer service business but watched it fail during the economic downturn. In the most recent past I have lived in a camper at several national parks and on a friend's property but have not really had a permanent address for at least the last 10 years of my life.
