The 2T was the Awakening. Maybe we can describe Xers as those who refuse to be awakened by it. Some Boomers realized the Awakening, and remember that it's the key to the new world unfolding potentially in the 4T and beyond. To remember the Awakening, is to stay awake. To disparage it, is to remain asleep.
In the Awakening, many Boomers learned to live in the present, and not cling to life. So to cling to the past is also to remain asleep.
