Over a decade ago, I resigned from my corporate career to support my family. Two of my three children have disabilities and I needed to focus on them. Staying home full time was the right choice for me, but it wasn’t a place I thought I would ever be. When I quit, I thought back to one afternoon, when I’d been reviewing employee applications with a colleague. One resume stood out from the pile, from a woman who’d been out of the workforce for a while, presumably because she’d been a stay-at-home mom. “She’s too far behind,” my colleague said and shook her head. “We don’t hire people who took a long break from work.” I cringed and swore that would never be me. But somehow, there I was. Resigning from my job felt like I was losing a part of myself.

Many of us Baby Boomers remember our grandparents reminiscing about “the good old days.” Most of us would roll our eyes or start thinking about something else while our beloved elders would talk about how different the world had become. Years later, many of us find ourselves in the exact same position as our parents and grandparents. There will always be a special place in our hearts for the good old days and special memories of things that just aren’t around anymore. While change is good, it’s also nice to look back and reminisce about certain things from the past that have shaped us into who we are today. Whether you’re reminiscing about the good old days or sharing these gems with younger generations, get ready for a nostalgic journey with these instantly recognizable photographs from the past.

Millennials and Gen Z truly have a sibling kind of relationship. They take turns teasing each other but in the end it's nothing but love between the two generations. In recent months people were taunting Gen Z about their looks saying that they age like milk and several from that generation agreed that people often mistake them for much older than they are.Well, it seems Gen Z is back with their own commentary about how poorly Millennials age but instead of the older sibling in this rivalry conceding to the point, they dispute it...with receipts. Ouch, this one probably stings a bit. Chris Bautista uploaded a video response to TikTok addressing the young whippersnappers telling Millennials they look old to explain why they feel that way.The answer is quite simple. Millennials set the bar for what aging looks like for people approaching middle age according to Bautista.
