ORIGINALITY IS SOMETHING WE CONSTANTLY CLAMOUR FOR, BUT CONSTANTLY QUARREL WITH - THOMAS CARLYLE

As humans we worry about our originality or we lack it. We have wondered if people will accept our things if they are based on what has been said before. Which makes it hard to start a blog. Starting a blog is hard because you have these options you either become original and people appreciate it or they don't or write  about what is interesting to people at that time which leads to wondering if stats mean more to you than your material because after all originality is the ability to express oneself in an independent or individual manner. As a person who is fond of music I have always been strict on musicians. I didn't like bed rock because it had a line from "Face off" the movie with John Travolta and Nicholas Cage, I also didn't like heart boxing love because it had a line from "Not over you" by Gavin Degraw but today when I was going to bed I found myself thinking about my blog  whether it is original or not because a lot of posts are about current news not something I have wrote myself but things I have found in other articles, just now I published a poem by Thom Gunn and I only wrote a few lines that were mine. So I asked myself if I am going to take credit of other writers work or am I going to start to write what I Mmabatho Molefe feel and comprehend. So from now on everything you will read in this blog will be my heart felt work maybe inspired by other things but truly me. That I PROMISE!!!
