Generation Gap and other Gaps – Blame or Bridge?
Generation Gap is more in the Nature of the Times,
Conditions and Environments that the Generations were Born and Brought up in.
While any Gap may be a Natural Result of Dissimilarities, even between two
Similar, Comparable, or even Contemporary Individuals, a Gap can be caused by a
mixture of Self-importance, Misunderstanding, and Subjective Dissatisfaction
over Unmet Expectations, etc., on the part of one or both.
True Friendship with Reciprocate Compassion Brings and Keeps
Contemporaries together, while Instinctive Love and Natural Affection Bonds Two
Generations. While Mutual Respect and Mutual Love nurtures the Bond, Callous
Indifference and Selfishness can Shatter it, and Widen the Gap. Any Gap so caused can be Bridged with the
Conscientious Neutralization of the Causes thereto. So we must First Try to
Bridge the Gap between Contemporaries, and if everyone of every generation
adopts this, there will be Mutual Respect and Mutual Love and no Gaps.
But it is always Better to
Prevent Gaps than Bridge them!
