I have a photo now! Hey everyone, it's me again. Duh. Who else would write in this blog? Haha. A bit bored now so I decided to write a new entry. I thought about my topic for about an hour now then we ate dinner and then, after dessert, I thought of a cool idea. That idea will be down there in a paragraph fashion. What a day it has been, all the wires. We made a parol today. I enjoyed it. Well, I also put the issue in Special Blog #1 away by the divine act of forgiveness and asking for it. Won't keep you waiting on another edition of my opinions, so here I go.
Defending My Generation
Every parent of the regular teenager today would say:
"Back in our day we used to climb trees, play outside. Now children are in their houses playing video games!"
Or something like:
"We didn't have those things when we were your age! You're too fast!"
They did say this though:
"The children are the future."
Tsk, tsk. How bad is that? They think that we teenagers are out of this world. Our parents and some other old guys think that we are immoral, lazy, indifferent, etcetera etcetera. But they say we are the future. They think we're not the way we're supposed to be. We are the liberal age. We don't live the old way. They say the old way is the right way, but I believe that they are just not thinking out of the box. We are the new people, and we try to discover new ways of living.
Sure, we have our flaws.
We have drug addicts, those who have too much problems and can't face them. The new generation of people just get into those stuff quickly. We have too many problems in too short a period of time. Maybe we think too much, maybe some of us just can't handle problems.
We also end up getting too lazy. Sometimes that's just the case, I really don't know why. Some of us also have babies at around 19, that's just wrong.
These are our flaws, but don't be lightning quick in judging that our generation is afterall one big mistake. We are yet to prove ourselves, and we will. Has our time come yet? No. Once our time comes, this world will see a new beginning, because we will change it.
Whatever you see of us now, it is not the real us. I mean, even Christ, God, answers to his mother in a somewhat rude fashion.
Here's a comparison. If you know the big brains of history, they were accused of being wrong as well.
Socrates was put into trial and then was punished by drinking poison. Athens was lost without him. Until now, his legcay lives. He has a lot of quotes too. He broke from the classical thinking.
When Galileo proposed that the in fact the Sun, not the Earth was not the center of the universe. Due to the fact that the Christians proposed in their teachings that Earth was the center, the people believed Galileo to be crazy. And, if it was proven that the Christians were wrong, that would lead to people not believing the faith anymore. The priests were using fear in that time to abuse their powers. Galileo was condemned, I think.
Leonardo Da Vinci, a.k.a. Renaissance Man, had new ideas in his works, especially his paintings and discoveries.
The Period of Renaissance itself is a period of a lot of new things. These new things are the ones we adore today. Those discoveries, those men. Are we not parallel to their time? Are we not the ones trying to reach into what lies beyond what we already know?
Give us a chance. A chance to prove ourselves. On this blog entry, I say now that we will be the one to be adored in the future for our generation's new ideas. Do not judge us by what you see now, because you are all yet to see the greatness of our generation. We are going to overcome our wrongs and rise up. Here we are, the second coming of Renaissance.
I won't write on LeBron yet, he's still injured.
