What do YOU Think?


What do you make of the many things you are told each day? Do you hear them, say "uh huh" and then tuck them away into the folds of your mind? Do you take it to heart and try to change your self based on what the recommendations are? Or do you just bush it off, thinking what you know is how its been, and it won't change? New information, facts and statistics are released almost every day. They tell us what we should and shouldn't do, how things work now and give us predictions of what the future will be and guesses of the past. They often contradict themselves, and replace previous knowledge.

What is released to us may not even be fair towards the truth. The results may be slanted to support a particular interest group, or so vague that the results lose their meaning. What are we supposed to believe when views change so frequently?

That is up to you.

Make your own decisions. based on what you learned, not what someone tells you. Research the topic instead of digesting whatever is put in front of you. You are allowed to think for yourself, don't be swayed by what others think. They are not the ones who make the decisions in your life. At the end of the day, the only opinion that really matters is your own.

The sence assailant

I Have noticed during my travels across your world that you are losing a battle that I'm shure that many of you do not know you are fighting. You are losing the war against advertisements. Now don't feel like the reason you are losing is completely your fault, their techniques are hard to avoid. You are constantly bombarded by images, models, characters all convincing you to buy one thing or another or use this over that. My I am surprised how materialistic this world is. You all require the latest and best product, no mater how new the object that is going to be replaced is. Every where that you look, something is being pushed into your face saying that this is the right thing for you. I have to say that advertising companies have "crossed the last straw". Where I am from, the only form of advertising was the town crier, and he mainly spoke of what the king was doing, not of what to buy. You have been exposed to the constant battering for so long now that you have become desensitised and have grown accustomed to it all. After my first day here, I refused to look out side again for fear my eyes would burst if I saw another bill board. You all have forgotten what it is like to be able to walk down a street and not be exposed to advertisements. You are forbidden to have original thoughts. You must not be blinded by the bright lights any longer. Regect what the companies tell you and form your own oppinion. we must stop bombardment and free our eyes from the advertising abomination.
