Like Socatres, " all I know is that I know nothing"

Words are words. They serve a purpose. In a religious point of view, I could tell you that we cannot claim anything as our own, everything is God's.

In a Human stand point, I can say that I claim my laptop as my own. I bought it. I did not make it but I bought it, so now it's mine. Though, Is it truly mine? I use it all the time. It has been with me ever since I bought....

Though... Hmm, who invented the laptop? Wasn't it based on the discoveries of others? Can the inventor of the laptop claim it as his own?

Ideas seems to be like words that continue being use over and over again. Some become cliche that there's no need to mention who came up with them. Other ideas are so original that we really feel like knowing who came up with them...

As far as claiming others people's words as their own just because they like it... I don't think one can do that. Wouldn't that be like plagiarizing? I just woke up from a nap lol and I've been thinking about this topic for a while. Actually for a similar topic not exactly the one that inspired your poem. But rather can we claim what we write as our own? Is It truly ours? Isn't what we write inspired by other people's ideas!? I guess I'll just anonymous ... May be some day I'll do.

Michael... Wrote a poem about something similar, where he worry about writing something that he could not claim as his own. I remember writing something like we need creativity to use and reuse ideas with other words. We make it our own by adding a "personal touch." Yet is it truly ours? I don't know. I never been s confused as I am right now. I usually write unique pieces inspired by who knows what mainly "imagination" and what goes on in my life. A combination of both. Though cn I claim is as my own? That has been my doubts since a while now
