Forever Young, Forever Our Own

Somewhere along the line, we decided it's too hard to grow up.
So we stopped.
We're taking a break from the natural time line of our lives.
We're Peter Pan.
Some where along the line, we decided caring for ourselves was easier than caring for someone else. 
So we stayed selfish. 
And we're still here, waiting for good to come to us.  
Waiting for a change in the world.  
Why do we think our generation is any different than the generations before us?  
Change happens with action.  
Love happens with an open heart.  
Nothing happens when all we see is ourselves in this world.
My heart is aching to be selfless.  To see selflessness in a tired generation. 
In a generation that can see what's wrong but who hesitates to do anything about it.
