Happy 8th Blogoversary

Photo by postbear.
Today marks 8 years since I launched this blog, The Generation Above Me.

Happy Blogoversary to TGAM!
Over the last eight years, The Generation Above Me has garnished over a million views of its 425 posts.  
I have several posts on these topics:

  • cognition
  • nutrition
  • exercise / fitness
  • films
  • books
  • caregiving
  • spirituality

Bias towards the Humanities

I do have a master's in gerontology, earned from 2010 to 2012. However, I taught college English for over three decades (composition, rhetoric, literature, linguistics). But I also lean into a the social sciences a bit. I am also interested in psychology, sociology, communications, education, religious studies.

Trends

My focus over the last eight years has evolved

  • from being overly concerned about physical frailty in late life 
  • to focusing more on the internal growth of spirituality, wisdom, and emotional maturity.
