There are so many young people living in this current generation that aren't any different than there ancestors. For example, in hip hop today many young people have spoke there truth how the older generation never seem to give them the recognition. They tend to scold and bash whatever current trend is popular.It's as if our ancestors forget when they were young. It's as if they forgot how they felt about there parents. I'm not here to scold them back or even beef with them. I think we need to bridge the gap and stop a lot of the hurt and confusion within many of us. I think this is relevant because hip hop is just young people expressing themselves openly how they feel. Many of us don't feel we have a voice. Many of our parents had to struggle to make it and got hardened to life. The financial stress, the worry of what's going to happen next and there own shortcoming effects us. Furthermore, this leads to many older people argue that young people are unappreciative and don't understand the struggle they paved. That the younger generation should be thankful. Although I agree to an extent we have to understand that this current generation are a little bit more expressive in how we dress, how we act and how we choose to move in this world. Furthermore, we must understand how we learn from our parents and there parents. For example, a lot of us in minority population see many death rates and long jail sentences to young people. An individual whose 25 and older is considered an older head or an old G. Which stands for a mature adult which can be a problem because a person at 25 compared to an individual at 65 doesn't have there wisdom nor experience. Furthermore, many young people ended up raising themselves. Many of us don't have the knowledge, wisdom and understanding so a lot of young people end up in traps. We start believing that going in an out of jail like the older generation or getting in an out of gun fights makes us strong. People start believing that this is how it's and having children out of wedlock is normal. However we must remember the apple doesn't fall from the tree. These are generational curses and many of our fathers didn't have fathers in there lives. Many of our mothers were there raising the children by themselves and taught the younger generation to do things because that was the best they can do. Some of the stuff our ancestors did were for our survival in the past. However times have changed and if we don't adapt future generations will continue to end up broken, in poverty, in lack, in an out of prison, broken homes, etc.
Furthermore, when it comes to relationships many of us our confused. If you're lucky you witnessed a functional relationship. However for most of us we have to learn through trial and error because we never witnessed a stable relationship. Most of our parents in this current generation are the statistics of the current divorce being more than 50% in North America. Not only did many of them leave, abuse drugs, abuse themselves and children. Furthermore, many of them who did stay together, only did it for the children. Many of us grew up in unloving environments where we were either constantly being scolded or yelled at. I'm not here to say I hate the older generation or my own parents who loved and sacrificed me dearly. In fact they developed a young man who can think for himself and endure the necessary struggles that come with living. However I think it must be said because many of us our in cycles of constant pain, struggle, regret and loss. Many of us our lost and confused. We're trying to numb the pain and neglect we felt as children. The same pain that stayed until we grew up. We're doing things to fill this void, to fill in the hurt, to try to understand why are we here. As we grew up and things continued to spiral in a downfall direction we started doing what are ancestors did. We used drugs, sex, money, alcohol, etc. I'm not saying the whole generation but collectively. Our ancestors would worship false idols, and many of us do today. Do you see how young people are so obsessed with certain material items. For example, people would shoot each other, rob there own neighbor, sacrifice there freedom, sell there soul just for some sneakers, a car, etc. Although money answerth all things are love for God's hands(His created items on earth) over God(The creator) is getting us in trouble. Many of us our using our tongues and speaking death. We're no longer using our tongues to heal and help people go in the right direction. Many of us our so selfish, vain that we feel if we help someone we might not get blessed. If we fix this individual our money that we get from them will stop. That can be seen in courts where the DA may not want to actually help there defendant because there worried if there free there will be no work. Furthermore, a social worker who sometimes does things to make sure there client never gets to high because there afraid they won't be able to pay there bills. We must grow from the possession of money using us and we're collectively using money.
