This week’s reading and discussion made me think about my
generation from my perspective. We discussed how the article was written about
Millennials by our father generation belonging to the Baby Boomers who
generally don’t have a overwhelmingly positive opinion on our generation. This
made me think about our perception about anything. Our personal schema and the
way we wish to see things always disjoint how things are. Perhaps our trust in
authority or need for a hero truly means nothing besides our own cynical
perception of the events we lived through and what we had in our lives. Isn’t
this really the only difference that shapes overwhelming perception? So if the
Baby Boomers, yes that’s you mom, want to critique the way we are, then they should
probably critique the construct of the world they created for us.
