Which generation am I talking about?
I saw this on Facebook, and thought, this could be said of a number of generations, so which one am I talking about?
WE ARE A GENERATION THAT WILL NEVER COME BACK.
A generation that walked to school and then walked back.
A generation that did their homework alone to get out asap to play in the street.
A generation that spent all their free time on the street with their friends.
A generation that played hide and seek when dark.
A generation that made mud cakes.
A generation that collected sports cards.
A generation that found, collected and washed & Returned empty coke bottles to the local grocery store for 5 cents each, then bought a Mountain Dew and candy bar with the money.
A generation that made paper toys with their bare hands.
A generation who bought vinyl albums to play on record players.
A generation that collected photos and albums of clippings.
A generation that played board games and cards on rainy days.
A generation whose TV went off at midnight after playing the National Anthem.
A generation that had parents who were there.
A generation that laughed under the covers in bed, so parents didn't know we were still awake.
A generation that is passing and unfortunately it will never return!!
I loved Growing up when I did.

I can relate/admit to many of these being part of my generation, many aspects shared with earlier and later generations, but not necessarily in the same way.
I came across this statement. We used to raise our hats to share respect, now its the raising of headphones that is respectful. Values don't change only the way we express them.

“My generation
This is my generation, baby.”
“I'm not trying to 'cause a b-big s-s-sensation.”
”I'm just talkin' 'bout my g-g-generation.”
BTW, Royce, I’m glad I didn’t “die before I get old.” 😂🤣😂
