We graduated high school into terrorist attacks and wars. We graduated college into a recession and mounds of debt. We will never acquire the financial cushion, employment stability, and material possessions of our parents. We are often more educated, experienced, informed, and digitally fluent than prior generations, yet are constantly haunted by the trauma of coming of age during the detonation of the societal structure we were born into. But perhaps we are overlooking the silver lining. We will have less money to buy the material possessions that entrap us. We will have more compassion and empathy because our struggles have taught us that even the most privileged can fall from grace. We will have the courage to pursue our dreams because we have absolutely nothing to lose. We will experience the world through backpacking, couch surfing, and carrying on interesting conversations with adventurers in hostels because our bank accounts can't supply the Americanized resorts. Our hardships will obligate us to develop spiritual and intellectual substance. Maybe having roommates and buying our clothes at thrift stores isn't so horrible as long as we are making a point to pursue genuine happiness.","author":"Maggie Georgiana Young","tags":["america","american-","baby-boomers","generations","millennial-","millennial-writers","millennials","poverty","recession"],"id":30129,"author_id":"Maggie+Georgiana+Young"},{"text":"There is no envy, jealousy, or hatred between the different colors of the rainbow.

Whether we like the idea or not, our young ancestors must have been capable of providing for their offspring, defending their families from predators, cooperating with others, and in most other respects functioning fully as adults. If they couldn't function as adults, their young could not have survived, which would have meant the swift demise of the human race. The fact that we're still here suggests that most young people are probably far more capable than we think they are. Somewhere along the line, we lost sight of – and buried – the potential of our teens.","author":"Robert Epstein","tags":["academics","adolescence","corruption","creativity","discrimination","education","fixing-education","history","memory","millennials","personal-growth","personal-responsibility","prejudice","pressure","psychiatry","psychology","rights","school","school-reform","science","stress","teenagers","teens","youth","youth-culture"],"id":55778,"author_id":"Robert+Epstein"},{"text":"Ask one question: Would a Millennial (anyone born between 1980 and 2000) look forward to working here?Try this exercise.
