I think we’d first have to acknowledge that: • Neither generation has a lock on truth AND • Neither of us knows more than the other.

		<description><![CDATA[We speak of ‘generations’ as if they are homogenous groupings of like-minded people who see the world in more or less the same way. I don’t know about this. I think there are as many intra-generational differences as there are inter-generational differences. I think that what may be distinct is how the young and the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=sereneambition.wordpress.com&amp;blog=427739&amp;post=120&amp;subd=sereneambition&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I was a little kid, my picture of &#8220;grandpop&#8221; was of a little old guy with spectacles, stooped posture, a little paunch, a distinctive limp and false teeth. My grandfather often brought a smile and a wink with him, but he wasn&#8217;t particularly able to relate to me. I recall we sometimes played checkers [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=sereneambition.wordpress.com&amp;blog=427739&amp;post=116&amp;subd=sereneambition&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently saw a CBS 60 Minutes segment about aging. It revealed, once again, how we view age as a physical state that we can control with “anti-aging medicine”—as if various ‘fixes’ such as growth hormones, plastic surgery, erection drugs and myriad vitamin therapies will somehow put off the inevitable. I am not saying any [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=sereneambition.wordpress.com&amp;blog=427739&amp;post=118&amp;subd=sereneambition&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We’ve all experienced the wisdom that comes with hindsight. It’s easy to have 20-20 vision after the fact, to achieve clarity and perspective on our lives and choices in retrospect. What is sometimes less obvious to us is how much of our day-to-day actions, behavior, moods and feelings are a function of the past.

If you think you have to work, then there is a natural tendency to moods of resignation, disappointment and, sometimes, resentment.
