in what form, in what time.

these cities are changing at a pace i do not grasp.  i hope their grasp on this change is stronger than mine.  

i have yet to understand how it succeeds.  probably because i am only twenty two and have yet to see so much.  as much as i have lived and experienced. these actual situations do not make up for the experience of time.  to see cities evolve, societies develop, culture and life styles change in a cities entirety.  

i did not experience equal rights grow.  i did not experience the evolution of a womans role in society.  i did not hear the movement of speeches.  i did not hear the drop of fear in the voices across our country.  i do hope though.  i did not before.  i did not fear before.  i fear now.  i hope for change as i fear we do not get it.  

in times that should be changing i believe i can have a hand in the direction it goes.  i feel that my heart is like that of many others living in cities that do not relate to their needs. cities that do not grow. cities that weep. i weep with them as i hope that you do too.
