The zeitgeist *among young people* may be that the future will be bleak...but raising/educating a generation of youth to believe the future is doom does a disservice to them and everyone else, I think. A commencement speech (and a difficult job for adults/educators in general) should take them out of that headspace and help them get back on the path of hope and even optimism, without obscuring truth, but also not getting hung up on catastrophizing. There is still a lot of good in the world that exists and more to be done. 😊
