Modern Love.

Posted on: Wednesday, June 18, 2008


Amazing essay in the NY Times that captures the way our entire generation thinks about love and relationships.


Excerpt:
"But I do occasionally wonder: If we can’t get past ourselves and learn to sacrifice to be with another, then what is in store? A generation of selfish go-getters fueled by nothing more than our own egos, forever seeking that rare dose of self-esteem? An era of loneliness filled with commercial wants and mate selection based on the shallowest of criteria? "

5 had something to say:

  1. omg that quote is so true.

    we talked about how selfish our generation is in my World Issues class.

    and apparently 60 minutes thinks it is because of Mr. Rogers and how he told us that we are all special.
