History Will Write Their Story

Past generations were taught not to question; 
do as they were told, and authority was always 
right.  One generation revolted; with lack of 
understanding, indifference, complacency, 
and a false sense of security; set the stage for life 
today. 

History has written their story; the disintegration 
of a Nation.  But, the winds of change are
blowing; another story is unfolding. The 
Nation is presented with yet, another 
complicated puzzle to solve.
  
Today a generation exists with a different 
perspective.  It is the their turn to fill in those 
crucial pieces.  Will they succeed in bringing 
about beneficial, effectual changes they proclaim? 
Only one thing is sure; history will write their 
story too.
