It will, indeed, help someone. We have to save and preserve ourselves. 👩🏼⚕️💕🙏 stormrunner507: ✨They call us "The Elders" We were born in the 40s-50s-60s. We grew up in the 50s-60s-70s. We studied in the 60s-70s-80s. We dated together in the 70s-80s-90s. We got married and discovered the world in the 70s-80s-90s. We ventured into the 80s-90s. We settled into the 2000s. We grew wiser in 2010. And we’re firmly beyond 2020. Seems like we lived in eight different decades... TWO different centuries... TWO millennials apart... We've gone from phone with a long-distance caller operator to video calling anywhere in the world. We've gone from slides to YouTube, vinyl records to online music, handwritten letters to email and WhatsApp. From live gaming radio, to white TV and black to color TV and then to 3D HD TV. Went to the video store and now watching Netflix. We met the first computers, punched cards, disks and now we have gigabytes and megabytes on our smartphones. We wore shorts all childhood and then pants, Oxford, rockets, full shells and blue jeans. We dodged childhood paralysis, meningitis, polio, tuberculosis, swine flu and now COVID-19. We used to ride skates, tricycles, bicycles, mopeds, petrol or diesel cars and now we drive hybrids or electric. Yes, we have been through a lot, but what a life we have had!. They could describe us as "specimens," people born in that world of the fifties, who had an analog childhood and digital adulthood. We be like "I have seen it all"! Our generation has literally lived and witnessed more than anyone else in every dimension of life. It is our generation that has literally adapted to "CHANGE". " All members of a very special generation, which will be UNIQUE! The old with the young in it. |
