As my Mom describes it, she's a depression baby. She
was born about the end of the Great Depression. They
never knew when the next "whatever" would come along,
so people lived frugal, and didn't throw things away.
Repaired what they had (like welding up a piston
rod). This way of life ended up coming down to me, and
I live the life of a depression baby.

Other folks took to heart "happy days are here again!"
and kicked up their heels, threw everything away, and
live for the moment.

I don't think either side really understands the other.
I know I don't understand people who live in empty houses,
and buy food on the way home, every day, one day's food
at a time, and nothing in the fridge. I'm sure they don't
understand me, with my full cabinets, and piles of clutter.

I think it's a shame that there is less compassion in the
world now days. People who lack compassion are worthless
f'ing moron idiots. ;-)
