A Genertaion Lost is a project of mine. I will be writing a series of essays much like what Emmerson did during the 1700's.
The inspiration for writing "A Generation Lost" came from the incidents of November 12, 2008 in which a girl shot and killed another girl at my school (can be found
here.)
The series of essays that I will be writing will be specifically about how this generation has gone into a path of ignorance and destruction, how the people within society are too caught up in their own protection, their own selfish greed as to help out another, such as the whole "snitches gets stitches" mindset many kids have nowadays and played a major role in the shooting. Yes people knew of this shooting a week before it happened and on the day it happened because the girl sent out text messages to all her friends saying what she was going to do but no one acted. I personally knew none of the people involved in this incident but it affects me as an intellectual person specifically because the actions taken today will affect the generation of tomorrow, but unfortunately this generation is as what I stated before but a generation lost, lost of its morales, lost of its common sense, and quite frankly it's such a shame that humanity after so many thousands of years of evolution and revolutions that we have not matured as a race at all but instead just are digressing to our caveman ways.
I will be posting pieces of my essays on here for you to read.
