I live in youth culture and it disgusts me. I see violence, alcohol abuse (I work in a nightclub, so I see that one A LOT) and mindless destruction everywhere.
how old are you?


i know what you mean... because i see it all the time, too.

and i know that it can feel useless, because you're only one person in a really big world... but it's amazing how many people i've influenced just by being myself throughout the years.
you don't think you're affecting anyone, but you are.
just stand by your values and be who you want to be...and you will make a difference.

a nightclub probably isn't the best place to start, but don't give upppp.
young people will always want to be crazy and stupid... you can't change that overnight.

The solution to this problem is in changing a whole culture. Maybe even human nature.
^exactly.

it's probably gonna be a lifelong evolution... so be patient.

but maybe you can start by getting a job that's more aligned with your beliefs, and your desire to make a difference...
?


just a thought.
