Spoilt For Looks

Are we the realself or do we feel the pressure to look and be a certain way in the society. Today it’s not just about the personality but it’s all about the way we look.

We are pressurized and somewhat confused. And that is all because of the health revolution and trend followed by us chasing the big banner stars. We are totally grasp in the fever of health consciousness to become more and more yuppy. Look at the earlier days, one could eat and drink what-ever one wanted. There was nothing of this no crabmeats or no aalo tiki (potato recipe ) or no anything anywhere. And that was blithe.

Now a days we are happy harrowing our body by restricting ourself having no calorie diet. The gonzo turned more gonzo. Especially when it is clobbered into our heads that eating Cucurbita pepo for one week would do wonder’s to one body. Anyways 85% of this health wave business is about amour proper.

Could you just imagine what is the greatest miracle on this earth. More expensive the clothes, more poverty stricken one has to look to get fitted into those clothes. Every day thousand of beauty products are launched in the market. And we embraced happy self destruction by using these products without even knowing their side effects.

But for me Beauty comes from the twinkle in the eyes, a dazzling smile and a glow on the face that silently speaks of the good health. It comes from the inner self and radiates from within. These fancy products are just the illusion that can only burn the hole in the pocket but can not relieve you from the actual problem.

Consumerism. You want to look good so that people you don't know want to know you.
