I believe that each generation has it's own unique set of challenges and contributions. I think that our generation has a greater gift of empathy and compassion and therefore have a great capacity for positive change when we learn and heal from life.
Gen X, I have known you since the day you were born and you are a MONUMENTAL bonus❣️Like those who have encouraged you to keep writing, “please keep writing” ✍️ Your words are truthful, openly honest and bring a personal perspective on the deplorable conditions to humans in our tax funded prisons under the guise of “justice”… HORRENDOUS
I think being Gen X is a bonus, though I’m Gen X too, so I might be biased. I’ve been reading your posts almost since you started writing here on Substack and I feel these stories about your son are heartwrenching, powerful, and necessary. Thank you for sharing. I loved that little bookstore that existed before Amazon was Amazon and I wish it could still exist today…I wish any independent bookstore could survive in our prison city these days…Lord have mercy! St. Patrick, Enlightener of Ireland pray to God for us.
I am all of those weird things and yet, none of those things. We are not our hair color or our professed religion or the brand of vehicle we drive. We are not even our stories. I am just a soul making my way out here with what I have at hand.

You are such an inspiration to me, Bridget. Gen X. Definitely a bonus, for too many reasons to list! ;)
Girl, can you just be my neighbor in real life?

Side note: one day, I’m gunna have a bunch of extra money and I’m taking you to Ireland. It’s going to happen.
