What would Grandpa think?

Growing up, I was blessed to have my grandparents with me even past my high school graduation. My Mother's father was in the military and was stationed in the Pacific in WWII. I regret not questioning him more than I did about that time, and also that I did not ask my grandparents more questions in general. The stories that I did hear from them have always made me wonder what it was like to be in that time. I often feel like I am in between generations. The time that I grew up in would place me in Generation X, but I feel tied to my parents' and to some extent my grandparents' generations more than mine or the following generations. Granted, if my Father listened to a good portion of my music I think he would shake his head. I guess the values that my family instilled in me make me feel more tied to older generations than the more recent ones. I am not sure where all this is coming from or going, so bear with me. Sometimes I wonder what my Grandpa would think if he were here today. How different are things now than when he was young? Technological advances and cultural advancement (or in some things, decline) are just two areas that are vastly different from years gone by. Notice I say 'different' and not 'better' or 'worse'. It just makes me sad that I did not talk more with Grandpa and Grandma about their lives; what it was like for them growing up, and what they thought about the changes that happen all the time.
