I find this all very interesting however I haven't had time to read the other thread yet, but plan on doing so.

My oldest is in her late 20's and her husband is in his 30's; otherwise I don't have alot to do with this crowd?

What I do know is that life is an attitude, what you focus on comes to reality. If you want to be negative about this or that, then sobeit; if you choose to look for the positive in this/that, bingo, sobeit. The fact is that most people are just wired to focus on the negative.

I spend alot of time training and disciplining myself to this regard and "I" struggle with the world of negativity too; so I can only imagine someone that doesn't put forth the effort to focus on positive aspects of life can't help but be swarmed with the negative aspects. I read it here all the time fwiw.

My involvement with this crowd of 30 somethings is definately an eye opener and I'm looking forward to reading Milt's other thread as I saw some good posts there. I find that this crowd is very open minded; they are more worldly, accepting the human race as equals and not so stereo typical as their older generation; they are world travellers and communicators as the world is a much smaller place for them; they have an instilled respect for environmental issues, equality and gender. They're not caught up in the 9 to 5 cycle as much, although it is a trap for our society, this group has learned to get what they want; by far one of the most successful generations of our times.

I would love to be able to pass along some wisdom to our younger generations, but finding a common ground is often difficult; however listening to them is very inspiring and refreshing; I love their perspectives.

Thanks for posting Milt, I'll look forward to reading through this thread as well......
Cheers
