The Method To My Madness

Vain

I have suddenly realized that my generation as well as the rest of society is so irrevocably vain. I think this happened when I saw a girl in the passenger seat of her friend's car taking a picture of herself while another friend in the backseat was fixing her make-up. I'm ashamed to admit that I've become a part of this new social order and frankly, it's kind of disgusting. It's like our world thrives off of being told we look attractive or having people notice us. Actually, I'm pretty sure that's fact.

I'm tired of trying to "fit in". I don't fit the mold and I know this. I'm not thin or even remotely skinny, I'm not tall, I don't have perfect skin. And you know what? That's okay! I'm fine with who I am and the fact that society forces these ideals that a person is below the rest of the world because they are human and have flaws pisses me off. We are all different. Their is literally know one else like our self. We all have different thoughts and life-courses. If someone isn't attracted to me because of how I look that's their problem. I know I'm beautiful on the inside and out. I don't plan on practicing anymore of these bad habits. 

I vote to kill the practice of selfies. They're ridiculous, stupid, and the epitome of one's self-centered need for the approval of others' when that doesn't even matter. I now understand how absolutely idiotic we all look taking pictures of ourselves. I'm just going to refrain from furthering my own embarrassment because one day I want to have children and I really don't want to have to explain to my kids why mommy has 2500+ pictures of herself looking like a complete twat..
