One's Perspective on Life
"Every man has a moment in history which belongs particularly to him. It is the moment when his emotions achieve their most powerful sway over him, and afterward when you say to this person "the world today" or "life" or "reality" he will assume that you mean this moment, even if it is 50 years past. The world, through his unleashed emotions, imprinted itself upon him, and he carries the stamp of that passing moment forever." - John Knowles in A Separate Peace
During that moment which is uniquely one's own, in the background but ever present is the way the world is supposed to be. It will frame the view in which one sees the world and shapes the way they sees things past, present and future. An example of this is my aging mother-in-law of adequate wealth saving every scrap piece of anything because it might be needed. She was child during the scarcities of the 1930's.
My moment in history was the late nineteen fifties and early sixties.
