Do you remember youâre beautiful? Do you even know that? Youâre nothing like there ever was before you came into being and nothing like there ever will be after you leave here. Every breath you draw and exhale spells unique. There is simply nothing else in this world just like you.
I donât know who you are, but I might see you pass me by on the street or sit beside me in the bus, and I might or might not glance at you twice. I would want to, because oftentimes it thrills me to remember. Youâre proof to me of the delicate and all-encompassing work that God put into this world, and as I look at you, I think of His creation. I think of Him molding ancient mountains and bringing forests on their foothills to existense and life, pouring the oceans into being, making grass grow, encouraging birds to sing in thousands of different tunes instead of just one. And I think of how the same God wanted you to be, and here you are.
If you turned to look at me, Iâd smile at you even though you might think it weird, because sometimes it might be the only way to grasp the passing moment and tell you that you matter. To tell you that I see you and I value you, whoever you are. Youâre right here and Iâm glad that you are. I might not know you, but I know you have a God-given life of your own.
And as youâd walk past or get up from the seat next to me, I might look at you go until you were all out of sight, until you had left my story to continue your own.
And Iâd wonder if you knew your worth.

âThe Lost Generationâ is a sad poem about society that ends with âall this will come true unless we choose to reverse it.â If you read it backwards, each line has an opposite meaning, and it becomes happy. Â Source
The Lost GenerationÂ
I am part of a lost generation.
And I refuse to believe that
I can change the world.
I realize this may be a shock, but
âHappiness comes from withinâ
Is a lie, and
âMoney will make me happyâ
So in thirty years, I will tell my children
They are not the most important thing in my life.
My employer will know that
I have my priorities straight because
Work
Is more important than
Family
I tell you this:
Once upon a time
Families stayed together
But this will not be true in my era.
This is a quick fix society
Experts tell me
Thirty years from now, I will be celebrating the tenth anniversary of my divorce.
I do not concede that
I will live in a country of my own making.
In the future,
Environmental destruction will be the norm.
No longer can it be said that
My peers and I care about this Earth.
It will be evident that
My generation is apathetic and lethargic.
It is foolish to presume that
There is hope.
And all of this will come true unless we choose reverse it.
Backwards:
There is hope.
It is foolish to presume that
My generation is apathetic and lethargic.
It will be evident that
My peers and I care about this Earth.
No longer can it be said that
Environmental destruction will be the norm.
In the future,
I will live in a country of my own making.
I do not concede that
Thirty years from now, I will be celebrating the tenth anniversary of my divorce.
Experts tell me
This is a quick fix society
But this will not be true in my era.
Families stayed together
Once upon a time
Iâll tell you this:
Family
Is more important than
Work
I have my priorities straight because
My employer will know that
They are not the most important thing in my life.
So in thirty years, I will tell my children
âMoney will make me happyâ
Is a lie, and
âTrue Happiness comes from withinâ
I realize this may be a shock, but
I can change the world.
And I refuse to believe that
I am part of a lost generation.
