Lost Generation?
Give them books to read, they won't read. They
would rather read pool results or football match
results in the dailies. Invite them to seminars
they won't attend, they would rather stay at
home to watch Telemundo or attend pool party. Post educative statuses longer than 100 words,
they won't read it. They will rather stare at Linda
Ikeji blog from morning till night reading
gossips. Give them free ticket to listen to Literary
Giants, they will rather go and buy tickets to
watch Whizkid. Ask them to pray and worship God, they prefer
to be sleeping.
These same people are the one chanting for
change. Asking for change when they are
unwilling to change. They are full of noise yet
empty of constructive ideas. They know nothing about world history, they are unaware of
breakthroughs in science, yet they know the
latest mobile phone in town. A lost generation,
always seeking quick fixes, quick to find faults,
yet void of solutions, morally bankrupt,
intellectually deficient, short of sight and lacking vision! Such is our youths. To whom do we
handover? This lost generation?
Can they be saved? Can they be redeemed? Who
will save them?
Start from your home now to make sure your
children are not part of the lost Generation! May God help us all.
