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 thirty 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
Thirty years from now, I will be celebrating the tenth 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 reverse it.
Now read the poem in reverse, from bottom to top.
The two contrasting versions of the poem symbolise our inclination to see things in either a positive or a negative light. And the truth is, it’s really your choice which outlook you adopt. We think we know which one’s better!

Ignoring a problem won't make it go away. Ignoring a solution due to pride, isn't ignoring, it's ignorant. -
“We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.”
― Benjamin Franklin
“There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”
― Isaac Asimov
The evil that is in the world almost always comes of ignorance, and good intentions may do as much harm as malevolence if they lack understanding.
Albert Camus
Facts do not cease to exist, simply because they are ignored.... Live While Ignorance Exists Nicely
You are not entitled to your opinion. You are entitled to your informed opinion. No one is entitled to be ignorant.
