Outrage!

I noticed a lot of people are using their image to represent themselves. Image is definitely important, but it can never be compared to the essence of that person him/herself. What I am talking about is the personality! People just go overboard with their outlooks, heavy make-ups, hair styling (which takes half an hour to an hour) and for some metrosexual men, even the smallest pimple on their faces will make their day awry. Is that all there is in life? Well, first thing to blame is the mass media; the society forming the new people of today. Countless advertisements, live shows on fashion and superstars, turning everyone's focus towards the limelight. Everyone desires to be a star now! The problem arises when they do not think about themselves, they forget what is their main purpose in their lives and try to be like these "superstars", losing themselves gradually.

Further talking deeper into these, there really are those people who are so desperate in their lives. Money, a partner. Well, for money, if they'd work hard for it, they receive what they get. For a partner, I certainly do not agree about this "desperate need". It's just a futile effort to get something you don't have. It comes naturally, well maybe not, it needs some effort. And here are these shallow people who desperately wants one, to the extent that they voice it out!? What else do they have in their mind? This is society's pressure after all, peer pressure to be exact. The term "Losing face" is so widely used nowadays. Everyone wants to be stylish, wants to have what other have. Basically it is "to have"; what the society has molded our minds to think of. Corruption is everywhere, every corner, every mind.

What I'm saying about this is that outlook, desires for someone, something, isn't a bad thing after all. As long as it is not overdone. Yea, I guess that applies to me too in a way.
