"Imagine you were born in 1900.
World War I begins and ends at 18 years old with 22 million dead.
You are 20 years old.
Then, at 29, you survive the global economic crisis that started with the collapse of the New York Stock Exchange, causing Inflation, Unemployment, and Hunger.
At 33, the nazis come to power.
You turn 39 when World War II starts and ends at 45 During the Holocaust (Holocaust), 6 million Jews die.
There will be over 60 million deaths in total.
When you're 52, the Korean War begins.
At age 64, the Vietnam War begins and ends at age 75
.........
A boy born in 1985 thinks his grandparents have no idea how difficult life is, but they have survived several wars and disasters.
In 2020, many of us live comfortably, have access to different sources of home entertainment, and often have more than we need. But people complain about everything. However, they have electricity, phone, food, hot water, and a roof over their heads.
None of this existed before. But mankind survived far more disastrous circumstances and never lost the joy of living.
Maybe it's time for Generations X, Y, and Z to be less self-escaped, stop complaining, and stop crying."
Excellent. Should be required reading.
