The Rising Generation

Today,as I sat studying geography, a particular line struck me. It was the first line of my textbook. It read "anything that is technologically accessible,economically feasible and culturally acceptable can be termed as resource."

The line definitely provoked deep thoughts in a philosophical mind like mine but two words in particular intrigued me . "Culturally acceptable". What is Culture? Well, it is defined as "an umbrella term which encompasses the social behavior and norms found in human societies, as well as, knowledge, beliefs, arts,customs,and habits of individuals in these groups."

Basically, it forms the very base of humanity and mankind. My generation- the Zillenials are all about being more acceptable. Acceptable to feelings,genders,lifestyle choices,everything. At the same time we come across as an intolerant generation as we are well aware of our rights and therefore we are vocal. We voice our opinions on various platforms. . We are active on social media platforms(most of us are too young to leave home just yet). Hence, our reposts and comments play a major role in electronic protests.

We raise voices on simplest of issues to the most complex of problems. We have an opinion on everything and we are rightly entitled to one. However we zillenials are also restless and we want the change to be quick. Ours is a generation that craves happiness and equity for all. We feel it is our responsibility to fight for those who are mute and it is undoubtedly so. But let's not forget the 'fact' that change takes time and we are making changes whether we realize it or not.

We are the future voters, let our votes speak against leaders oppressing democracy. We are future earners, let our works speak our success stories. We are a smart and sensible generation for we know that actions speak louder that words.

Our generation is new and we are still figuring it out. But let us not forget to be patient. Life will unveil itself eventually just like a theater curatin opening before a Broadway hit. We know it will be spectacular. Anticipation is a part of life and it is what makes our success sweeter. I know for sure that we will figure it out.

Brother Gibson's and Sister Dalton's talks were directed at the rising generation. Here are a few of the highlightiest of highlights.

Larry M. Gibson (1st Counselor of the General Young Men's Presidency)

If I'm preparing to be a missionary, do I have the answers to the questions that Russel M. Nelson said we should ask the missionaries about?

Lighthouses give off a unique kind of light, each having their own characteristics.

"Like lighthouses, we all have unique characteristics that set us apart but we all give off the important light of Christ."

"If you are preparing to be a missionary, utilize the resources we have like never before. These tools are meant to help prepare this rising generation to greatness."

Elaine S. Dalton (President of the General Young Women's Presidency)

"The Lord is calling for a new generation of stripling warriors, of both young men and young women."

"You were born to lead the world, not be led by it."

"Guard against rationalizations like YOLO."

"Follow the Prophet - we will know what to do and how to be victorious, even if we're outnumbered."

Your Calling

We as teenagers try to figure out who we are A mystery left unsolved until who knows when Some, hear their calling at a very early age Yet some, are deaf to reality and cannot find it Known as the kids of today and adults of tomorrow The real world is coming up at an alarming pace And each rising generation is losing their hearing So they are unable to hear their calling by adulthood Entering the door to the real world, running into a brick wall So always keep your ears tuned in to every detail And then if you listen close enough you can find your future.
