On youth

We had a gathering of 21 college seniors at our house last night and the first thing that shook me was how young they all are! The next was how hopeful, aware, and interesting each one of them was. Their thoughts on Obama’s future and Bush’s legacy, about Health issues, and International relations, and their overall sense of responsibility and yet carefree view of tomorrow. Wow, youth. So different from sex, drugs, and rock n roll when I was their age. We were the lost generation.
