Through The Reflection

Why do we all seem to worry about what others think of us? When really the other person also thinks the same way...Constantly trying to fit into those terms we consider 'perfect',what is that? being skinny,having a tan,being very social,sucsessful at our job/school,smiling all the time?????????? However we just end up in pointless diets created by some artifical celebrity,covering ourselves in fake tan but looking like a carrot at the same time,adding random starangers on facebook so we have 700 friends and satisfy our 'social status',stressing out for many little things and having a fake smile painted on our face.In the end we start to look at our selves from our reflections in others eyes,which are infact mostly pointless critism and lies...Eventually we forget our own mirror and our real reflection,so if we are all human and everyone one of us has felt this way at some point in our lives we should realise that the 'perfect' we know is just another term made up in our minds,a term media,magazines,adverts etc... has embedded to the way we think.So,who cares? we should look at our reflections from our own mirrors,not sculpt that image into a lie with others opinions...

  1. I'm grateful to Keith and his blog, "Musings of An Unapologetic Dreamer" for introducing me to your blog. I thought I'd be systematic and start reading your postings from the beginning, though I read your most recent post, too.

    I agree with you. Authenticity and following the beat of our own drummer as Henry Thoreau put it, is best if we want serenity and sanity.

    What I've read is wonderful. I resonate with your perspective. I enjoy how you express yourself. You are gifted.

    May I invite you to visit my place in cyberspace?

    Wishing you a terrific weekend!
