I was born in 1945. I can relate to what you say. I am still programmed to save and manage with what I have. It’s kind of funny that now it is called “going green.” I’ve been going green my entire life. I still take my cloth bags to market, and I’ve always told my kids that my middle name should had been, “improvise.” I never used pampers on my 8 children. I sew, knit, crochet, and never waste anything. Even leftovers need to be eaten, or given to the birds. It really bothers me on how much people WASTE now days. Maybe the state of the economy will help to bring back the habits of people who lived through the great depression.

I agree with those last two lines totally. I was born the year after you and went through much of what you went through. Now, like you, I have time to do things the way they were once done. I am not a great one for modern gadgets. A very well written article.

I really enjoyed Tina Casello’s comentary, “Generation?” Tina and I are in a poetry group in Chicago called Brown Bag Poets. At a recent meeting, I read a poem of mine called “I Come from the Past.” Last week Tina told me that my poem had helped to inspire “Generation?” Thinking about that inspired me to write a poem for Tina, which I hope you can post.
