You know how everything seems perfect in movies, except for the main characters conflict? Perfect beaches, perfect weather, perfect clothes, perfect makeup, perfect people... Well, it not perfect. GET WITH THE PROGRAM people!!!! Those are MOVIES< staged films! The world we live in is not perfect. Nor are we... we live in a world of peaceful ignorance. This day and age, we are very, I don't know, selfish? We think about our own personal needs above those of others, or the earth. For instance, I saw a girl the other day who was complaining about how we are killing the earth, and then she got in her car and drove off. Perhaps we are more ignorant of the "big picture" then of the here and now. Driving a car=Less work for ourselves/ saving time but in that effect we are also polluting the air we breathe. Circle of life and whatnot...
However, the focus on ourselves also causes much concern on our world. Anorexia and Bulimia are common in todays younger people, say 14 to about 25 years of age, and that stems from thinking you are not perfect, but fat. Or you want the compliments to make yourself feel good. Basically, you feel you "need" to do it to be accepted. Heres a link to a story that convinced me to NEVER throw up on purpose or to not eat.
