ARE WE LOSING THE PLOT

WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO STRIVING FOR THE BEST EDUCATION, WANTING TO BE  IN THE TOP THREE IN YOUR CLASS OR EVEN IN YOUR GRADE?
WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO STICKING TO YOUR PROMISE, STANDING UP TO THE WRONGS AND DOING WHAT IS RIGHT?
WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO SHARING AND CARING, EMBRACING EACH OTHER AS IF I WERE YOUR BROTHER?
ARE WE LOSING THE PLOT?
THESE DAYS ITS ALL ABOUT THE RAT RACE, WHO GETS TO THE FINISH LINE FIRST, DOING WHAT EVER IT TAKES, TO GET THERE FIRST, EVEN IF IT MEANS BETRAYING YOUR FRIEND, STEALING FROM YOUR PARTNER, JUST AS LONG AS YOU GET YOUR WAY AND YOU ARE VICTORIOUS.
THERE IS A PROVERB THAT SAYS THE ONE HAND SHOULD WASH THE OTHER HAND, SIMILARLY, IF I SCRATCH YOUR BACK, YOU SCRATCH MINE MEANING IF YOU DO THIS FOR ME I'LL DO THAT FOR YOU VERY SIMILAR TO BARTERING OR TRADING BUT IS THAT A YESTER YEAR TRADITION?
THESE DAYS EVERYONE SAYS ONE THING BUT DOES THE TOTAL OPPOSITE AND THE QUESTION IS WHY?
THE YOUTH ARE STRAYING FURTHER AND FURTHER AWAY FROM THE MORALS AND VALUES, DISRESPECTING THEIR ELDERS AS IF ITS A NORM, NEVER WILLING TO GIVE A HELPING HAND REGARDLESS OF THE SITUATION, ALWAYS WANTING SOMETHING IN RETURN FOR EVERYTHING THAT THEY DO.
ARE WE LOSING THE PLOT?
IT SEEMS AS THOUGH EVER SINCE THE TURN OF THE MILLENIUM, THE IMPORTANT THINGS HAVE BECOME THE NOT SO IMPORTANT THINGS AND THE NOT SO IMPORTANT THINGS HAVE BECOME PRIORITY IN MANY LIVES BUT WHY IS THIS SO?
YOUTH OF TODAY WOULD MUCH RATHER BE OUT DOING DRUGS OR INTOXICATING THEM SELVES WITH SOME OR OTHER SUBSTANCE INSTEAD OF TRYING TO EDUCATE THEMSELVES SO THAT THEY MAY IMPROVE THEIR LIVES TO BE BETTER, TO DO BETTER AND HAVE A BETTER LIFE, A SENSE OF BEING AND JUST OVERALL ENJOY LIFE MUCH MORE BUT YET AGAIN I ASK ARE WE LOSING THE PLOT?
HAVE WE BECOME THE SLAVES OF THE LOST GENERATION OR ARE WE UNDER A SPELL OF SOME SORT THAT WE ARE NO LONGER ABLE TO DISTINGUISH BETWEEN THE GOOD AND THE BAD OR HAS THE BAD JUST BEEN DISGUISED SO WELL THAT WE CAN LONGER TELL THE TWO APART?
ARE WE LOSING THE PLOT?
WE NEED TO DIG DEEP AND GO BACK INTO TIME AND BACK TRACK, FIND WHERE WE WENT WRONG AND TRY EVEN IF THAT'S ALL WE DO TO REPAIR THE DAMAGE THAT HAS BEEN DONE OR WOULD YOU SAY THAT WE HAVE ALREADY LOST THE BATTLE AND THE WAR.
