Generation I
It comes across a little clearer to me how things are the way it is right now. Why people cheat, why people choose they things they do, why i'd rather stay home alone on a saturday night watching mopey tv dramas as opposed to getting a sloshed ass and sleeping through sunday morning.
there are many things in life that requires you to choose. more often than not, unimportant decisions. everyday decisions, yet sometimes you'd have to make life changing ones. and believe it or not, 90% of those choices made are backed up by nothing more than a "because i want to".
Generation I, as a friend casually mentioned today, is made of up nothing more but me, myself and I. Though it seems deeper than it should be, thats it. Living our lives the way I want to. Making choices the way we make because I feel so. Choosing the things we choose because I can.
Gone are the days where you have to be accountable to somebody else. a friend, a lover, a spouse, a religion. Gone are the days where secrets were shared, feelings were opened, emotions were laid up raw because they could be. Everyone is more concerned about themselves rather than the guy next door. Worried about how much they'll lose out if they give this up.
I guess we have all unconsciously morphed away from Generation Y to Generation I. Where the You's used to come first, way before the I's.
Welcome to the new world kids, the generation I.
Maybe the world will be a little less selfish, if there was more love, Y's and pies.
Make a difference, we'd say, in this world of I's.
Then maybe there'll be more commitment, less heartache and no more lonely valentines.
