After a long hiatus, I hope to return to providing topics for insight, consideration, and exchange of ideas.

So much has happened, and is happening in the world that we don't all have enought, or actually we have more than enough to talk about regardless of our individual or collective opionions.

I had a conversation a few weeks ago with friends and former colleagues from different US cities. They shared their experiences and insights regarding the apparent increasing trend of gun-related violence in the US, especially that of so-called mass shootings.. My guests were: John Sullivan and Ismail Abdulaleem from Indianapolis, Indiana; Muaath Alkhattab, also from Indianapolis, but now living in Montgomery, Alabama; and Zubair Abdusshaheed from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Each of my guests contributed unique insight on the topic.

General Premise

The intention of this program is to provide a forum to discuss the life experiences and insights of older generations, and the challenges to maintain a sort of continuum between older and younger generations. In order to proceed with as clear a focus possible, it would do well to define -- for the purposes of this program -- the concepts of "Senior" and "Elder."

In this segment, I will discuss the concepts of "Senior" and "Elder" as I seek a baseline frame of reference for the program. While the generally accepted definition of "Senior" relates more to that of a senior citizen, especially in western thinking, my intention is to relate the concept of senior to our older generations.

As for the concept of Elder, while an elder can most certainly be an older individual, we might also see that elders can be younger than the accepted age range for seniors, and yet have significant impact on younger individuals or groups.

To be sure, this topic will need more discussion and the possible collaboration of additional contributors to the conversation.

This is not an analytical broadcast. Moreso, it is the effort of one layperson to share my experiences in life and a reflection of how life for younger generations is also impacted by the trends and influences around them.

This is not a representation of any particular political, social, or cultural organization, aside from my personal practice and living.

Looking forward to engaging conversations, and insightful discussions . . . with hope for benefit and value across all generations.

Thank you.

Ibrahim
