There's a certain way people use words.
We've all felt it. Perhaps we haven't accomplished it, but we've experienced it.
Something in the way it reads, something in the words and how they're meshed.
It can start your heart going, give you hope.
Sometimes it's in the way someone did the music in a movie.
Sometimes it's that youtube video that you walked away from, changed.
People use it to get money, popularity, sympathy…you name it.
But when someone, somewhere out there in our gigantic world, whom we've never met, seen, or heard of, writes or videos something we can't ignore. . .
You can Facebook it, Tweet it, Pin it, Share it, Like it, Follow it, Subscribe to it, you can do whatever you like.
There's hope for our generation.
Not in memes, games, quotes, music, pictures, sayings, people, stars, celebrities, movies, pop-culture. . .
In us.
"We are the target market.
We set the corporate target.
But, we are slaves of what we want. " – Switchfoot
What are we doing to ourselves?
Sitting here, doing nothing, learning nothing, talking about nothing, fighting and debating about nothing, voicing our opinions about nothing, buying nothing, selling nothing, convincing people that nothing is worth your time.
Nothing is worth your time.
None of it.
I can't tell you this and have you believe it. You have to choose to believe it. You know it deep inside yourself.
Wasted lives.
Whispers come every time you click the screen, with every video you watch. Another 5 minutes, another 10. One more episode. One more fandom.

They command us.
We are slaves of what we want.
There is hope for our generation.
We could be so much more than this.
So much more than internet sensations.
We just have to want it.
