Gleaning generations:

I’ve had this inter-generational thing going on lately, in my dreams and real life, being welcomed to the tables of both very old and young tables to be in their inner dialogues, and learn the concerns of each generation’s hearts.

I feel blessed, as I’ve always seen myself as somewhere in between the generations, and like learning from each! Sort of a watershed person, who is in love with whole River across time.

And I really do love all the generations and their gifts and thinking about how they fit together! Maybe i’m a generational interpreter, or at least appreciator of the gifts of each, and seeker of how our stories fit together symbiotically. We clearly need each other!

Regardless, to be welcomed by each generation is such a current joy. I’m a learner of the lessons we’ve each learned thus far. An inter-generational vision brings more clarity on the overall narrative going on!

I feel blessed to get to be part of at least three generations of current dialogue going on! I’ll keep listening and being thankful for each perspective, and considering how it fits into the big story we are all in, and learning to carry and write our chapters in! It’s a joy to behold more of the longer story!

The young are talking about meaningful jobs, finding their context, having hope in hard times. The old are talking about still being useful relevant, having a place to share what they learn. What if these two get together!
