Cowardly and Cold

We are too often a people too cowardly and too cold.

We cry out for change but we consistently remain the same.

We want bravery and honor in the world but reward cowardice and dishonor.

We say our ideals are more important than any money we can earn and then happily sell our ideals out for money.

We desire understanding but never take the opportunity to understand.

We say we believe in equality and discussion and representation but exercise raw power to enforce our will in our way.

We desire others to look out for interests but seek the interests of ourselves above others.

We wish for love but pursue our lusts.

We are nothing that we claim that we wish to be, yet are shocked that things do not turn out as we believe that we should.

We believe that we are destined for great things, yet will not recognize that that which we choose not to do is what will move us towards those great things.
