Young people are often seen as not caring about where the world is going. I don’t believe this to be true; they are powerless, out of control. Seeking an escape hatch or the nearest lifeboat.
Sometimes, the lifeboat isn’t as approving of the greater good than some would like. An escape could also be a prison, so to speak.
Young people need to be informed, involved and inspired.

I really enjoyed reading this. Just like you, I am a young person. I know the meaning of change, and I see the trouble that our world is plagued by. You are right, the understanding of change comes through personal experience; however one personal experience may bring more understanding than expected. And sometimes this understanding takes time to arrive. I am still learning, just like you are.
I want to be one of those people that can help change things, it is my dream to give some true meaning to my life; and this I will find by giving everything I am to the effort to change our world and society.
We are not powerless. Inside every single person the is the potential to help bring a solution, and we all have the power to bring about change. We just have to be willing to seek this goal. We are so small, each one of us is only one in billions. But our size isn't relative to our potential for significance. One tiny drop in a sea of tears, we can all make a difference if we choose to do so.
