Journal Entry for May 23, 2007 Mood
Wednesday, May 23, 2007

Im a fun person, spiritual, happy,  (most of the time) but there are some things that really bother me.  Why do we care what others think about us, why do we follow, why do we wear the same clothes as everbody else, why are we sheep?!  Society today is putting images of women out there that are'nt always natural, that are airbrushed or plastically enhanced, why is skinny the so called thing to be.  I just want to know why we can't be happy in ourselves and not have to rely on a magazine to tell us how to be and how to look and what to wear.  There is so much pressure on todays girls and women, to look or to want to be like this and it may lead to depression, bulimia, and anorexia.  No one is perfect and for it to be on our shelves everyday is sometimes intimidating.  There is nothing wrong with the women in these magazines, Im just saying we are all different and thats what makes us who we are, beautiful in our own indivdual way.  I don't want our young girls to forget who they are and try to be someone they are not.
