A SAD GENERATION

This is a generation that cannot deal with the past and therefore cannot see a future.

A generation that claims to live in the moment, but hates the moment it lives in.

A generation misinformed about itself and its human depravity.

A generation that has never understood the power of overcoming and moving forward.

A generation that is now being forced to open its eyes to a terrible reality and its inept efforts to change the world.

A generation that will repeat history because they weren't taught to learn from it.

 

Yet - 

this is also a generation that craves authenticity and despises hollow clichés.

A generation fierce in its convictions, yet fragile with deep sensitivity, 

haunted by a profound sadness.

And still - 

a choice remains:
to turn bitterness into wisdom,
brokenness into humility,
longing into truth.

And in that truth, 

rests the seed of a hope that never fades -
a hope that reaches out and touches
the hand of something greater than themselves.
