Pumps' Perplexities

In the living of "life" everyone has to hit the "wall".....Some
once, others perhaps multiple times......I guess my use of
the word "wall" is equal to "an awakening".......Life and all
it's "goods and bads" hits you square in the face.....The "wall"....

It appears to me that us older folk were fortunate in a way
to have encountered the "wall" at an earlier age than the
so-called "Boomer Generation".......We did not grow up poor,
we just grew up without money.......We lived in the shadow
of the "wall"......

Today a large number of the "Boomers", who may have
tripped or stumbled in the past, never have been
confronted with the "wall" itself.......And sadly, here they
are at the age of 40 or 50 looking at it "square in the eye".....

To many the "wall" is represented in career changes, early
life medical problems or financial retirement insecurity.....

Early life's struggles does have their benefits.....Perhaps it
is because you get them out of the way sooner, than later......

Oh well, this is a useless blog because it is not a "boomer"
problem anyway......It is someone else's "wall".....Pumps
