WHAT'S REAL?/QUE ES REAL?

Did you see the last top model from a famous clothes line? (if you haven't, lucky you) is that how a real woman looks like? did you see the last music video of a "famous" rap star? is that how a real man behaves and that's the way real man talks about women? did you hear about the man who highjacked an airplane in the name of the Lord? is that the way God communicates and do things nowadays? did you pay attention to the last reallity show with a "famous" person on it? is life about cars, parties, "getting laid", addictions, money and drugs? (and this last one is the most retard of them all) to be respected nowadays, do we need powertrips? mass production of weapons? a brand new, really expensive car? a futuristic looking phone? you got the idea. Should we thank them for the lies they're feeding us? should we follow their example and crash our lifes? destroy our families and marriages?, should we thank them for the "great" example they're setting for the young ones? should we honor those who gain "respect" (or fear) as they dishonor their fellowman? should we thank the media for all the hard blows and confusion it brings to our life, self-esteem and identity? so let me tell you something, let yourself question what influences your life, are you making the best of it as you follow the worst the world can offer? life is not as sweet as it tastes... or looks...
asi que dejame decirte algo,Viste la ultima modelo de una famosa linea de ropa? (si no es asi, suertudo tu) es asi comoluce una verdadera mujer? viste el ultimo video de una estrella "famosa" de rap? es esa la manera en que un verdadero hombre se comporta y esa es la manera en que un verdadero hombre habla sobre las mujeres? escucharon acerca del hombre que seuestro un avion en el nombre del Senor? es esa la manera en que Dios se comunica y hace las cosas hoy en dia? pretaste atencion al ultimo "reallity show" que viste con una persona "famosa" en el? es la vida acerca de carros, fiestas, "acostones", adicciones, dinero y drogas? (siendo esta ultima la mas estupida de todas las mencionadas), para ser respetado hoy en dia, necesitamos abusos de poder? produccion masiva de armas? un nuevo y muy caro automovil? un telefono de semejanza futurista? creo que tienen la idea. Deberiamos agradecerles por las mentiras que nos esta alimentando? deberiamos seguir su ejemplo y destrozar nuestras vidas? destruir nuestras familias y matrimonios? deberamos agradecerles por el "gran" ejemplo que estan dando a nuestros jovenes? deberiamos honrar a aquellos que ganan "respeto" (o miedo) al deshonrar a sus semejantes? deberiamos agradecer a los medios por los golpes duros y la confusion que traen a nuestra vida, auto estima e identidad? dejate cuestionar lo que infuencia tu vida, estas haciendo lo mejor de ella al seguir lo peor que el mundo puede ofrecer? la vida no es tan dulce al provarse... o al mirarse...

  1. It's nice to know that not everybody my age is blind and has their head up their rears! Thank you for acknowledging and finding the truth to be self evident!

  2. I feel ya. The media generalizes life and makes it seem like the best things to it are to hit it rich and party all day. I can guarantee those who follow these reckless lives find it hard to wake up happy in the mourning (and that's not just the hangover!).
