Christion – Pull It

by admin on July 25, 2010

This an old song from an old R&B duo called “Christion”. They are a lesser known (as well as underrated) duo with nice smooth vocals. The song talks about how society molds some to make the wrong decisions in order to gain benefit.

Lyfe Jennings – Statistics

Nice song by Lyfe, a song every female should listen to. Don’t become a statistic and learn to respect yourself always.

So I was sitting down, randomly thinking as I sometimes do, and I happened to be thinking about relationships and people. And in my head I asked myself, “its amazing how some people can put someone that their not married to or not even sure they love above their friends, family, and even God almighty himself!” My fellow people…. please STOP! Just because you finally found yourself a girlfriend or boyfriend doesn’t mean you have to cut everyone off socially and stop speaking/responding to people. Be the same person you were before, and of course spend time with your new boo, but don’t cut off important people in your life. Find the time and perfect balance to spend time with both. You don’t want to lose people that are close to you and then find out the new person in your life doesn’t even really like you as much as you thought or things just fall apart between you two and you lose out twice! Yet disaster’s like these happen more than enough. People lose themselves because their so greatly attached to someone (lust) and become blind men or women to everything else. So my advice…. just don’t be that person who makes their boyfriend/girlfriend their “god”. Learn to love and not lust and if you don’t know the difference do some research. To make it simple though lust is with the eyes and body but love is from the heart.

What is Life?

by admin on April 12, 2010

Several hundred, even thousands ,and millions of years ago there were no such things as Jimmy Choo pumps, Gucci shades, Louis Vuitton scarves, VVS cufflinks, Bentleys, Hummers, Lambo’s etc. In MOST civilizations and eras people didn’t even live materialistic lifestyles because they were simply trying to live and not live it up in those time periods. Ancient peoples didn’t have these things and evidently must have came a long quite well without them, since we’re here today.

Now before I go on there is nothing wrong with the above things I mentioned, but when you let it rule both your life and personality, then there’s a big problem. As people we should not be over-saturating our minds with materialism or allowing the media and society to let this happen. Some people need to learn to break free and stop being confined by expensive objects and vain or useless ideas/imaginations. These things only kill your spirit and cloud your mind with lies. Life is not about money, sex, cars, and clothes. As great as those things sound they are only temporary pleasures and joys, which don’t last. I advise you pick up the bible or something if you want to learn the true meaning of life, but those four things and anything pertaining to materialism is not what life is about. Entertainers can tell you different, but I can assure you these things won’t give you happiness no matter how much your in denial.

In the past we didn’t live like the way we do now, so why are we so heavily enticed by materialistic goods and embrace such an over-consumptive culture? If we didn’t so strongly embrace materialism and over-consumption back then, why are we so set on that track now? It seems materialism is at an all time high! Today, we are always forever highly desirous peoples that cannot get enough even though we have more than we actually need. We just are never satisfied, which is a problem not just socially but also economically and environmentally. Our lives are basically ran by what gives us the most pleasure and about “me me me me me”. If we all always want something and look out almost or solely for our own personal materialistic gains, just imagine how the world will soon be in the future? It would be like a mix of ancient Babylon, Hollywood, and all the MTV reality shows put together, not a great look for mankind.

Now with all that said what is life to you and why?

Future of Advertising: Ads that Follow You

by admin on March 22, 2010

Looking at this video shows some somewhat scary implications of the future to come. Cameras that follow you in public and display ads that cater to you? Sounds like a disaster for society that may potentially lead to more materialism and people thinking less for themselves, but I don’t know just some of my thoughts. What do you think?

What is Love?

March 17, 2010

Love is of course intangible, but it is also (or at least should be) everlasting and enduring through any and all circumstances. So, why do some people have marital/relationship problems? Does one person love wither away? Were they truly in love to begin with? What is their relationship based on? Material and things of self-interest? [...]
