Prostitution

It always seems that there is a duality to morality in our society. Who ever is in power that the mass majority follows dictates what that morality is. Prostitution is technically illegal in our society. Yet, somehow prostituting our children in pageants is deemed not only legal, but is also celebrated. Children should not be sexualized in any way, shape, or form. And, I guarantee you that the mass majority would agree with that statement. But somehow, we all except that there should be exceptions to this rule. Why?

Freedom is Love. Love is Free. Marriage is Equality.

Why don't we stop the same mistake from being repeated again.

If not, we are to look back in twenty years with shame and regret in our hearts and minds.

Rationalism

"Nothing is holy anymore" - Carl Jung

What we value results in where our society stands.

We no longer value the visionary.

We value the fame hungry whores who will sell their souls for five minutes in the spotlight.

We rationalize our greed to feed the hunger for this desire.

I say we because I am a product of this environment.

As much as I try to resist, I can't help but imagine how much easier life would be if I would simply succumb to this urge and sign on the dotted line.

But I have to believe that there are others out there like me.

No matter how hard the struggle is, I must stay true to my convictions.

I have to believe that we will find our way back to the center, back to the core of our existence.

Social Media: Connecting us or furthering our isolation?

With all the social media marketing tools out there, I have to wonder whether or not those in charge are simply trying to distract us as much as they possibly can from the world that we are surrounded in day in and day out. With an outreach to every corner of the globe, how many of us actually take interest in our community. We are constantly trying to escape through this virtual world that offers us nothing but instant gratification for minimal amounts of time. I look at people who go out to restaurants with their friends and family and it startles me how many of them are on their phone looking at their facebook or playing "words with friends" instead of interacting with the person right in front of them. Take a look the next time you are out and see how many of those near you are actually interacting with the person they are out with. If we are that bored with our everyday lives, maybe something needs to change.
