My Generation

Just a quick thought

The problem with my generation is that we never had to fight for anything. We grew up in between the Vietnam war and the Gulf war, that's about 20 years of no major conflict that we could throw our young muscles behind. You might even say more time than that since the Gulf War wasn't really a fair fight anyways...so we could stretch that out and say 30 years.

We are the victims of peace!

We understand the concepts of fight, of fighting, of conflit but we really don't appreciate any of that in the gravest possible sense. How are we going to run countries, companies, and corporations when we are used to creating conflict strictly for our amusement. And make no doubt about it, we are going to be running things...are we prepared?
