Some of us are born under a rainbow and the storms come to us in our adult years. But some of us were born in the storm and eventually experienced rainbows. That is me. I was born into a storm. 1970 was a time of chaos and upheaval with pendulum swings similar to today. We had landed on the moon the year prior. 1970 was an incredible year for music and art. But we were also mired in a war that was killing and maiming thousands and in year 2 of Nixon’s presidency - who until 2016, was considered the most morally depraved President. One year after the Summer of Love, Martin Luther King, Jr. and then Robert Kennedy were murdered. The Boeing 747 made the world smaller. The breakup of the Beatles made it sadder.
