Love or hate yourself
So, here i am at work, thinking what it is that makes me happy, what it is that makes any of us happy? Is it our possessions, our salary satus, our image, our many groups of friends? No matter what anyone said, we are all some what brainwashed by the media around us. We as a society have glorified everything that is wrong. Everywhere i go, i see people trying to be something that they aren’t.
You got guys/girls talking a bunch of BS, about who they know, what they do, how much they earn and what they’re wearing. The truth is, they don’t know anyone, they don’t really do what they say, they don’t earn as much as they say and they’re in a huge debt wearing what they are wearing.
You got professional hockey players going on strike because they want more money, hahaha. We can only wish to make a million and they are demanding several millions. I know they work hard and they deserve to be paid well and they do, talk about greed. I want to see those players find another job that would pay them even half the salary that they were getting.
What’s sad is that we might not necessarily want all those material things and we don’t want to talk about who we know and what we do or have to dress like we’re in some kind of fashion show, but it is to a point where we have to just to get anywhere in this society anymore.
This very obsession of status is the main cause for all the problems we have with ourselves. Ironic…
