We live in the era where showing off our accomplishments/traveling/life on social media has become vital to our existence. In the mix, comes beautiful superstars that are queens of social media. We see all their beautiful pictures, and suddenly we think that is all there is to them.

Men become conditioned to think women are all about how we look. Who can blame them right? I mean look at the immense amount of movies and televisions shows that objectify women. Of course, this is just merely a reflection of how men actually think.

Men make up 95.7% of directors in the Hollywood industry. It is no wonder women are portrayed in the way where nothing matters but their looks.

All this media exposure, not only allows us to live in a fantasy world, but it soon starts to affect our reality. It makes us vulnerable to the negative influence of others. Therefore leading to focus on the physical aspect of women and even men and ignoring the traits that matter such as character.

When we see someone we like, the first thing that attracts us is their looks. Imagine every person would allow themselves to put all looks aside and focus on the person's character. Friendships and relationships would possibly last longer. You know what they say, outer beauty fades and inner beauty stays.

By no means am I excluding looks at all costs. They do matter, but they are not what we should be focusing on.

Let us celebrate everyone's inner beauty. At the end of the day, character is waht truly captures the heart.

But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.
