The Copy & Paste Generation

Sooner rather than later, we'll have to face the fact that we have become a copy and paste generation. We are having fewer and fewer original thoughts flowing into these spheres. We share, retweet, like and favorite other people's thoughts and opinions. We ride on ‪#‎HashTags‬ and comment on people's original thoughts. The fact that we opt to copy and paste to pass instead of understand and thus discuss and articulate issues with all this beauty that is our brains is appalling. The Whatsapp Generation that uses technology to seek for a pass.
Good information should be shared. It is good to pass great information forward. The question is, how often I'm I churning out original thoughts? I'm I just a pipeline that passes content onward but remain static and solid in one place?
Work up your mind. That's why you have it. Be original. You are not a photocopy. Pass on awesome information. Share what you are passionate about. But be a pro-creator too. Impact this generation with your originality. Bring out your creativity, your personality, your ability. Show us what you are made of. Start somewhere. Sharpen yourself day by day. Get better and better.
People start from somewhere. Start now. Show your identity. Learn from others but do not hide in someone's shadow. Don't be content with others content. Build the entity that is you. Unique. You. Have your shadow. Do not be someone else's shadow. Come out into the light!
I call you!
