Is Gen X Stuck in 'Fight or Flight'?. Content Warning.
There are constant jokes and memes over Gen X being one of the toughest generations. The concept of Gen X'ers raising themselves from early childhood, having a lack of strict rules to follow by growing up, and learning to internalize our pain. As a member of Gen X, I was one of the members of the generation that was forced to grow up too fast. I was taking care of my younger siblings and cousins when I was 8 years old. It was not unusual for me to be left alone with them while the adults went to the store or to work. I was a confident for the adults in my family. It was not uncommon for me to be the "middle-man" trying to help broker peace in a family conflict when I was 10 years old. Nor was it uncommon for me to call the police to report domestic incidents of violence when those attempts at keeping the peace failed miserably.

The socioeconomics of humanness
The socioeconomics of humanness lies in the beauty of balancing the aspects of togetherness and isolation. In a world where life coincides with the duality of forces, oscillating between the forces of light and dark, beauty and hate, love and hatred, birth and death, humans are the most endearing and detrimental beings ever to exist. The prowess of intellect and communication, with the stellar mind that created the strides of evolution and lapses of civilization, is undeniably the most striking aspect of what makes humans the most resilient beings of them all. Yet we fall into the pits of downfall, where we forget the radiance of hope, the enclasp of a mother’s warmth, the depth of kindness, the trance that we fall into from time to time although harrowing, is what makes us human. We have to go through a phase of failure and aloofness to fully embrace the goodness of bliss and the peonies of gratitude that embellish the strides of our existential realm.
