Is this a thread for concise wisdom, or just for being brief for the sake of it?

Betty Patel172 said:Hi 🙂 , I initially felt the same way, much like most of us who are slightly older. But honestly, people said the exact same things about our generation and the one before it. Once you reach a certain age, your perspective shifts—whether you want it to or not—and suddenly you're the one grumbling about the younger crowd, just as our elders grumbled about us. It’s just the natural progression of things. We like to think we've become wiser and more mature, but in reality, we might just be becoming more narrow-minded. You see what I mean? 🙂
John Mitchell7 said:I watched that Science Magazine piece wearyrider16 shared, where Simmons breaks down those distinctions between indigo and crystal children... there might be a grain of truth in there somewhere.
But honestly, I think it’s just a convenient way to feed the ego, much like someone else pointed out here. Isn't it perfectly natural for generations to shift? My grandmother's generation wasn't the same as mine, and we aren't the same as the kids coming up behind us.
Where I do agree is that "indigo generations" tend to be passive—mostly just complaining and lamenting the state of the world—whereas "crystal generations" seem more inclined to actually take action. To me, that sounds less like mysticism and more like basic sociology and anthropology.
Everyone wants to believe they belong to the "indigo" group. Please.
