The Lost Generation

I am part of a Lost Generation

and I refuse to believe that

I can change the world....

I realize this may be a shock but

"Happiness comes from within"

is a lie, and

"money will make me happy".

So in 30 years I will tell my children

they are not the most important thing in my life.

My employer will know that

I have my priorities straight because

work

is more important than

family.

I tell you this

once upon a time

families stayed together.

But this will not be true in my era.

This is a quick fix society.

Experts tell me

30 years from now I will be celebrating my 10th anniversary of my divorce.

I do not concede that

I will live in a country of my own making.

In the future

environmental destruction will be the norm.

No longer can it be said that

my peers and I care about this earth.

It will be evident that

my generation is apathetic and lethargic.

It is foolish to presume that

there is hope.

And all of this will come true unless we choose to reverse it....
