Whatever Happened To Peace, Love And Understanding?

 


Everyone has heard the phrase: Sex, Drugs and Rock and Roll but few are aware this phrase's first surfaced at the end of the Seventies and was derived from the original rallying call of the counter culture: Peace, Love and Rock and Roll.

Rock and roll is believed to as in addition to being an expression of youth rebellion. In our modern society, where there is a lot more tolerance for sexual activity than there was previously, sex isn't without risk; diseases unwanted pregnancy, sexism and the crimes of passion. Drugs can cause damage to physical and mental health as well as mental issues, and even deaths due to overdoses are among the major negatives.

Drugs and sexual activity are two of the things that our authoritative figures warn us. Rebellion tends to be directed at those who are in authority. Drugs and sexual gratification aren't just amusements, they can be risky however, in contrast to skiing and jumping bungees, they are also rebellions and expressions of individuality.

In the infamous land of "The Sixties", peace and love were considered to be rebellious acts. What could love and peace be considered to be rebellious acts? We, as a species were warlike. Our grandparents had fought in during the "War To End All Wars" Great name, but a poor war. Our fathers helped save the world by having won World War Two, the most infamous war ever! It's not a big deal to ask for World War Three, we are all three, as well. The Korean Conflict, whatever that was, was still in the air at the time we were in Vietnam. In the 1960s, peace and love. most radical ideas, hatred and intolerance were the norm.

Through all the changes, the only thing that was consistent as a type that of rebellion in the face of all these changes was Rock and Roll. It was even a form of protest towards rock and roll in itself such as the time Punk Rock declared Classic Rock bands, Dinosaurs, and the music of the past generation dead.

It's sad that the initial slogan of peace, love, as well as rock and roll is lost to time and is considered to be outdated by those who remember. It was the connection of the music to notions of love and peace that gave it its initial strength. Sex and drugs might be fun for some, but alarming to others, but they are not powerful and the capacity to incite the same feelings of love and peace. This association made the music last for as long as it did and I hope that it could one day be used to bring back the notions of peace and love into our collective consciousness , where they belong.
