It seems that everybody
is blaming our generation
Yet I don’t understand
and need some clarification
So let’s all give it
a little closer inspection
‘Cause I must ask
of you a question
Before you go push
us over the brink
Have you ever stopped
for a minute to think
Who was it that
raised us this way
And who has taught us
as we grew each day?
Before you go off
trying us to shame
Don’t you think we both
must share in the blame?

I liked that you ended with sharing the blame rather than trying to shift all of the blame. My mom and I often argue about how I’m not a protester, I don’t put effort into changing what I don’t like about government, but I always shoot back with, “we’re Separatists, not Puritans, where do you think I got it?” My entire religious background was founded on, “if you don’t like it, leave.”

Eliabeth, I had to snicker when I read your comment ’cause being raised Catholic and going to the schools all 12 years, I would have to say that I am a Separatist too, lol. I used to argue in religion classes (during my H.S. years) with one Priest in particular. After getting out on my own, I “seperated” from the Catholic Church. That was when I did my exploration of other churches and found out that they all had things that I didn’t agree with 😦 Thanks for you sharing your thoughts with me!! Blessings, Terri
