In my opinion, the second verse is better than the first one. Both of them make sense, however, the second one is more well written. So I definitely recommend using the second verse, in your poem.

It depends on the context of the rest of the poem. Well-being and fulfillment mean two different things.
Well-being is the condition of being healthy and contented, fulfillment is to satisfy achievements, demands or requests.
So eg. if you're talking about a generation's behaviours affecting how the world will be in the future, the first would be the most appropriate.
The second one does not make so much sense, as the future cannot fulfill itself simply because the future is something we create by our own actions.
I hope that is not too confusing to follow.

The second one definately sounds better. It's more eloquent and has better flow. Is this for an essay? If it is, I'm sure your teacher (or professor) will also prefer the second quote.

I like the second one better. The first one sounds like an 8th grader wrote it.
