Today, I read this phrase on somebody’s msn, “ First the car, then the girl”. And I thought, “ Have we really reached rock bottom in every single aspect of our lives whether it is socially, economically or politically?”
How did we end up this way? Women not appreciating their minds, just looking for someone with some money to spend and if a husband comes along the way then why not?- Men, living on bread and water to get the “bling bling” car and buy a bottle of champagne in some club to be the “hunk of town”.
What did I miss??
Where is our culture? Why don’t we have a healthy relationship with ourself and others? Is it all hypocrisy now? Is our society this empty? Dealing with ourselves and the other people is a buy-sell package and the best marketing strategy is to put your display of false wealth on the dealing table to be reserved for the auction? Are we this afraid of the future that investing in “nurturing” a productive mind and channeling our money into a business is such a silly idea? Is the genius idea now to package an empty box with a golden gift wrap and fooling ourselves and others into thinking it is of value?
I am not trying to preach now, but in all honesty I do not understand what happened. Really, what is going on? Why is reading such a bad thing?? Why is seeing the world and learning from different cultures so bad? I have no conclusion for this because I do not know the real basis of this conception of fake grandiosity so I am just going to say, God help us…
