I understand how you feel with regard to your comments concerning the fate of your age group, AN. Many younger people I’ve talked to feel the same.
When we’re born, and how that effects the outcome of our lives is definitely one of those “wild cards” in life–since none of us consciously makes that choice.
As I mentioned before, sometimes it’s just a “being at the right place at the right time” sort of thing–and much of that is out of our control.
With the way things are in the world at this point in time, all you can do is exactly what you’re doing, and hope for the best, as well as enjoying all of the many blessings you do have.
