Do not imitate; harlem shake

Hello girls and boys, ladies and gentlmen, these last days everyboddy is going crazy on youtube and facebook, harlem dances are everywhere, this inspires me to talk about imitation, this is a touchy subject, and it is part of globalization phenomenon. the first question comes to mind is (why we imitate other people or other cultures?), my explanation to this is trying to be familiar to not feel like an alien, so we are generally trying to blend with others so noboddy can judge us, this is serious issue we can’t go over it, it effect the way we dress, speak, talk, think… sometimes it goes to the point of forgeting who we are and where we belong. There is two different reaction to the globalization, the ones who close to themselves emmediatly, they are slowly diying in there own ideas, and the others who are overly opened as I recently said in the “imitation” part, these are two bad negative reactions, it only drives us to going back instead of progressing. so you may ask me Majda how can we deal with it? first of all life is a train never stops, travel with or without you, so we have the choice to take this train or not, when taking this train we should have an ID card that haves our informations; principles, values, thoughts… And be proud of it all, know I think we almost solve the problem, there is one more question “why are some cultures more spreadebale than others?” my answer to this is the weakness of some, and the imitation is one of their causes, the solution is actually super easy; we should correct and reinforce the culture from the inside so it can stand beside the strongest ones, and exchange more ideas and thoughts, think about it my friend the world will so boring if we are all the same, this is actually the case of the harlem shake explosion. This is it my friends be confidence, be your self and don’t care about others, be patient and have faith.
