We are all in a endless battle with our inner demons.
We are all trying to find a way to cope with these unappealing insecurities, some cry, some cut, some pity themselves. we try to find any copping mechanisms to numb the pain because no one wants to feel insecure.
we even go as far as compare ourselves to people we think are worse off than us, just to feel a bit better about ourselves. people quite often harm each other, on purpose because that feeling of empowerment over the weak gives us confidence. But why is this? how could calling someone cruel unnecessary words make anyone feel any better about them self's ? It doesn't, maybe for a second but after you call that chubby girl that breaths heavily in your gym class a "fat troll" what then? Those scaring words will not fix her her physical appearance neither will it fix your own flaws so why is man stuck on this type of cruelty. Maybe we believe its okay to be cruel because we are not hurting ourselves, "its not me they are talking about so i don't care,"
People have eyes of there own, they can point out there own flaws quicker then any stranger could, so why contently remind people of there imperfections, they know. they know of that extra fat in there lower tummy, they know of there stick figure body shape, they know there own flaws before you could even notice them.
Although one might not like how people look. No one is entitled the right to put others down because of minor flaws. For example Oprah was called to fat for television, Demi lovato and many well know celebrities are faced with the consistent reminder that they in no way are they perfect and never will be. We have forgotten to look past physical appearance and look into what really matters. We are to busy reminiscing on the idea of physical perfection when perfection does not exist. Its the state of wanting to be better,prettier,smarter,funnier then everyone else that brings out humans hurtful cruelty. if we could only remind ourselves that we are all dealing with the same hell but different demons we could live in compassion rather then in competition.
Good attempt to copy his style, could go more in depth if you wanted to. And capitalization was a big problem. But other than that it was good.
ReplyDeleteI liked how you included yourself in the fact that we face demons. You also used specific examples with Demi lovato and oprah.
ReplyDeleteGreat examples if people who go through these problems or people being cruel. Could go more I'm depth on how you feel but I agree with everything you said in the argument.
