We can type out these sentences, going on and on, whether or not the words are genuine.

We can rant about what’s wrong with our society, let the fire fly off our fingertips onto the keyboard and create a picture of all the wrong in the world, in our school system, or just in our simple lives.

But who really cares, who really wants to change it? Maybe the question is who will actually change it?

Are you even hearing these words or just skimming through them because you have to?

The truth is we are all cowards. The change will never come, and that is terrifying.

Past this, will you petition for student understanding, will you be an activist for your cause, will you be truthful, will you be the person you could be?

Probably not.

You probably won’t even remember your insightful words two days from now.

Our corrupt world will continue in it’s steady path, creating whiny teenagers that splurge potential but fail to use it.

But, this is just a simple assignment, what’s the use?

This is step one, to putting your words to use.

But you’ll just push “save” and be done with it.

Right? Right.
