We Are The Future

Our parents have tried to raise us to be leaders, to be set apart, and to be extraordinary as young people, but it can be hard to live up to our potential when the world we live in encourages mediocracy and indecency. I chose this as my blog topic because we really are the future of this world. WE are the ones that will take over responsibility and either rise to the challenge, or sink to the bottom. So how do we  make positive choices and discern what is going to try to pull us down? How do we make a difference and teach ourselves to dare to believe in our dreams? I'm going to find out. Everyone has gifts to contribute, an opinion to share, and a choice: to either be part of the problem or part of the solution. Most of our generation is falling into the problem category, thinking they can't change anything about themselves or this world, but they are sadly mistaken. All of us can be amazing...all of us can be examples...all of us can be role models and positive influences, and all we have to do is realize it and put it in action, but we aren't. I want to change that. In this world, there are leaders, and there are followers, and I believe in setting a positive example and being an influence of encouragement to my fellow students to reach up, reach out, and become absolutely extraordinary in a world of ordinary.
