Television

I have obsessions with certain shows.  Some of them suck me in in a way that I cannot verbalize.  I learn to love the characters, I hurt when the characters hurt, I wish the best for them.  There have been episodes that I can feel their pain and sadness. 

My truth: I am so detached from the things that happen around me that I have stronger feeling when I watch television series.

The Family

 The pain...

The goodbye... 

The love that could be...

Election

Everyone knows we had an election last week right? Well on the 2nd I was coming home from school and on the radio an announcer said 'the election results are coming in, but what I really want to know is who will be voted out on dancing with the stars." REALLY??? Is that all she can thing about? something that is incredibly insignificant when we are talking about the fate of a states policy and national government representatives.  I firmly believe that society should take more of an interest in politics because it effects life everyday.  Most people cannot and do not know how much the government affects them.  It's worth  something about politics so that you can make an impact and be heard.

Don't sit around complaining if you are not willing to be involved.

My truth: society needs to take a closer look at its values, and show people that there are more important things than reality TV.
