The current highly charged international political climate and the rapidity with which changes of epic proportion are made has provided me with a sense that my role as an individual deserves further reflection.
\n I’m now 23. Yesterday for the first time, sitting down with my mother (52?), I somehow felt like a peer. I guess I’ve come across enough bullshit in my life to connect with her on that basic level. Talking about the advance of technology brought further realizations. For one, there is a generation younger than myself. Across the modern world they have access to a world of technology and resources that were only first becoming available to a priviliged few during the time of our childhood. There was a time when we were that younger generation with new technology and resources but those were not as developed and as widely available.
\n Sounds like a History Lesson… I know. That is why this is so striking to me. We are now a generation with a few lines in the history books. We’ve seen some History made in our time, we’ve been a part of History in our time, now it is our time and it is within our means to create History. What defines our generation and what resources are available to us? Will we sit back passively and watch as our history unfolds on the television? Alternatively, will we actively pursue the opportunities provided to us? What will our chapter in History reveal about human nature, what secrets will we unlock? And what role as individuals will we take as we shape the character of the human species and the complex natural systems of our Earth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
