The fear of our generation

I see our generation as a generation that is very goal oriented instead of people oriented. We care less and less about each other and being there for one another. Instead we focus on what activities we are in, how we can move up the ladder of success, our jobs, how much money we make and all the materalistic things in this world. When times get tough we rarely look to each other for support and help because everybody is too busy in their own thing.

When people get hurt we rarely step up to the plate and fill in responsibility. We find it harder to let go of our own selfish desires to fulfil responsibility in work, school, organizations, and anything else. We hurt for our friends and family but thats it. As humans we want to go fix it and do something when really there is nothing to do but stop and comfort those who are hurting. There is nothing to do but to step up to the plate and be there instead of just saying I'm there.

"Words are just words until you put actions behind them"
