Living In Denial

Is anyone else depressed about the news lately? I get sick to my stomach everytime I try to read a story. There is so much hate in the world. Religions fighting amongst themselves, liberals and conservatives pointing fingers at each other, nations threatening to destroy other nations. It is horrible. I cannot watch anymore. It seems like if I have a certain view about something.....let's see....I'll pick a random topic.....fashion. Just the topic of fashion will start a war! You don't believe me? Okay, just follow along.

I like that shirt what! That shirt was made by child workers in a sweatshop! Slave labor is closer to describing their job.

What a neat purse that purse was illegally imported undermining the American employee and severely infringing upon the trademark protection.

This jacket looks warm Do you know how many animals die for stupid fashion statements? Fur might be warm but the animal that had it before you needed it more.

These shoes are cool! Those shoes are designed by the masculine with intent on keeping a woman uncomfortable and in a subservient role. Until women can wear shoes that are comfortable yet still professional looking then men will always percieve themselves to be dominant.

Now before you all say, oh that isn't reality I swear to God Himself that something along those same lines has been said to me at one point in the past two years. The news sucks. I will start turning a blind eye which is very sad in itself. Sometimes living in denial for a short bit is the only way to survive.
