There's this... generation... that everybody hates because their parents gave them everything they ever wanted. They were able to have luxuries that their parents and grandparents and great-grandparents could never have known because of said forefathers' dedication and hard work and wishes that their future descendants might not have to struggle as they did, but rather live in happiness and comfort. This is the generation that the world despises. Their parents gift them with leisures, sports, televisions, computers, phones, credit cards, automobiles, educations, activities, allowances, video games, music and movies. They clothe them, feed them, warm them and rest them. They pour their money and their love into the expired "American Dream" that old, ex-human beings believed in. And it was true then! But, somewhat regrettably, does not exist anymore -- even for those who try to achieve it or create it. They try to create a dream in flesh and blood with their children... but it is only that: a dream.

As the world realizes this, they begin to panic. The generation seems to be evolving of its own accord in the way that is most natural and human to it. Parts of the dream become strained and challenged, and the parents try desperately to re-guide the pieces back together.
YOU LAZY, NO GOOD, FREE-LOADING, IMMATURE, UNCIVILIZED, SELF-CENTERED, SELFISH, UNGRATEFUL, ILLMANNERED, DISRESPECTFUL, RETCHED, VAGRANT LITTLE -- - !!!

So quick to yell "underappreciated!" Why don't you work? Why don't you do chores? Why can't you perform simple tasks? Why don't you pay for anything?

Do you not see what you have made? ...Clearly.

The world does not understand. The world does not understand the generation, because they never bothered to ask. What the world sees is a generation of people who take what their forefathers have given them to live happily and with less sweat and worry. Now the world is concerned that this generation does not know how to work and will not be able to support themselves and survive. The world is concerned that this generation has not learnt about... the world. They only now find a flaw in their American Dream.

Unfortunately! the world's assumption is wrong. And we all pay sorely for it. What the world never cared to understand was the truth about this generation. This is a generation of people who fulfill their passions with the resources available to them. When they are gifted those resources, they are grateful and become happy. When they lack the resources to build on their passions, they work hard to achieve them. The fulfillment of their passions creates their happiness, and in their happiness they are satisfied and more able to assist others. The generation is fully aware of "how good they have it." They know. They know how hard their parents and grandparents and great-grandparents have struggled to create these opportunities for them, and they are grateful. They do not waste the opportunities, but live them as their great forefathers had intended them to be lived -- free from the toil.

They live happily. And this is what they grow up believing in. This happiness is the burning, driving passion, common in them all. Unlike their forefathers, who had to work and sweat and endure in order to make a living and survive, and to protect and provide for their families to ensure their survival, this generation is different. This generation only needs one thing to survive: happiness. And they will work and sweat and endure to achieve it, and to ensure the happiness of their families. They will not have the big beautiful houses with perfect gardens and white, picket fences that America dreamt about, but by God! ...they will be happy. They will be happy to live on what is necessary to survive, and they will pour their hearts into their passions, and in doing so, those hearts will be filled with joy and happiness to eclipse any worry. Their souls are whole and taken care of, and with no other need for themselves but their simply achieved happiness, they will be infinitely prepared to take care of their families and their fellow man until Need is satisfied.

.....But you never asked, did you?
