Our basic human want to feel beautiful and wanted are being tossed aside for the present feeling of acceptance, not even thinking of the future at all. Society is changing before our eyes. I feel like the minority when I look around and see the lack of values and the lack of care our society has for each other. Respect for a woman, respect in boundaries, respect in a relationship. RESPECT in general.
I think about alcohol a lot, I think of how it's crumbled my own personal world. I grew up around too much, I grew up where I would never put my own children. As adults we are entitled to relax, but where does the level reach excess? Do you have children? Responsibilities A job? Because of my personal experiences I wish there were not a single drop of alcohol on this planet. It's ruined my family, and has brought many tears to my eyes. People do awful things when they drink, and say awful things they may not mean.
I've never felt the need to do what the cool kids did in order to fit in. Go out and party, do drugs, and sleep with whoever the wind blows your way. I've switched schools, I've been through the cycle. I have been a loner, and I have been surrounded by friends. My values never changed, always staying the same. I still have this value that many lack, I still stick to it, and it sets me apart.
I just wish society would see the beauty in who they could really be, rather than rip apart their beauty for the present feeling of acceptance.
