What really freaks me out is that early picture of Cat Stevens. Looks like a LOT like me, when I was in my 20's with a lot of hair.
I was aware (been told) of the resemblance, in years gone by, but I had no idea that the link to the song would do that. Spooky.

I been told I look like Donald Sutherland. Or the Unibomber.
Take your pick; it's useless in the Grand Scheme. But I do like Cat Stevens.
I still like him, very much. Tearjerker.

We all need to play, brother. Play is the crux of the biscuit of creativity.

Yep. After learning what my Dad went through, it's easier to understand why he is the way he is. Of course since he became older, he isn't the same person and that's a good thing. PTSD takes many forms. One part of me wishes I knew sooner in the hope that it would have made a difference. The other part still thinks it could have been different and yet a third part says, well, whatever. Ya takes what ya gets.
Well, that's a lead in for Bill's alphabet soup. ADHD, likely from prenatal smoking and drinking. PTSD, from the environment.
Learned to escape in books, the woods, and later... shortwave radio and music.
My first Out of Body Experience was when I was about eight, laying on my back staring at the stars. Falling into the sky.
I repeated it often, and later was told it was a form of meditation. Found the sensation delicious, and a really good giggle.
