The Gap

Every generation has a gap. Gap of technology, gap of language, and even just the smallest things like hair or clothing. Some times the adult tries to fill in the void between parent and child. Sometimes it is the child that drives the dump truck filled with gravel and dirt to fill the distance between so that they can understand each other.

Most parents try to save their children from some of the same mistakes they made or they try so hard to shelter them from any situation where they might get their feelings hurt. Parents educate their children on a variety of topics yet every generation has to try it their way as they think this time it will work because they are doing it their way.

Technology can advance and our scientists can discover new elements or see stars in other galaxies but always remember to look back as our elders are on the same course and they have so many amazing things to teach us.
