Smarter, Faster, More Creative

Every generation thinks it's better than the previous one
   Smarter, faster, better-educated, more creative

What would be something refreshingly new under the sun
   ~ The next one admitting it's mostly imitative

You're right, I'm afraid. No younger generation wants to get shown up. Oh, well.. :) gw

It is interesting that the generation that knows everything seems to be the one that has not gotten far in this lifetime; perhaps they are drawing on past life experience?

Or perhaps the young generation just doesn't know what it doesn't know. When it does, it will have experience. :) gw

I would have to admit there are some intelligent and creative young people in today's youth but I do find that things tend to repeat themselves just in different ways. I know that mankind mostly would have never thought that they could put an airplane in the sky but some did dream and now we(not me LOL) have gone very far with that dream. Thanks for the visit to my page. Very creative work you have penned in this one. Sara

Yes, you're right, of course. There are numerous dynamic, creative individuals out there making the world a better place. As a group though, maybe not so much. :) gw
