In answer to my own question, I'm thinking about 1959 (a sleeper, I know). I was 14 and it was the end of my childhood, as well as the end of the childhood of the culture. Everything was just about to happen. I'm partial to 1910 for the same reason....the eve of WWI, the end of the Victorian-Edwardian era. Threshold years.
For some reason I find this topic mind boggling, like a test question I should be able to answer but can’t. I’m glad it’s not that and look forward to seeing what others say.
Here at "Let's Talk" I find these seemingly simple questions have a lot behind them. I call it, "Let's think." I love especially thinking about "how will you meet 2022?" I'll have to get back to you on that one!
I realized the link between "is there another year that you identify with" and "how will you meet 2022?" The years that I mentioned are on the brink of tremendous creativity. We're struggling under a blanket of despair. How can we get in touch with that electric energy?
