Ever wonder whether your decisions really make a difference? Sometimes you feel strongly about something and don’t really see away to make a difference? It’s really frustrating to know that the big companies really don’t give a fuck what you want, think, expect or anything else for the matter. The only thing we know for sure is that big business is all about the money… greed at its best! Thus, the only way to be heard is by spending our dollars in places we are heard.
I suppose it has either become a true concern or a trendy fashion to be aware of the effects society has had on the earth. I’m hoping that it is a true concern, this isn’t a new concept it just took quiet a few years to gain momentum and to actually be heard. I’m sure Al Gore’s movie helped a lot! It is rather ironic that a man that had the presidency stolen from him still managed to change the world. Rather bittersweet in essence, especially for the people who have died at war.
Yes, this section is on fueling our bodies and our choices. Now, I do try not to be over the top on this topic, it’ll probably sound that way but virtually all of my friends are meat eaters and certainly my ex-husbands and ex-boyfriends were also. To state the obvious on that one, that just doesn’t work so I don’t date meat eaters any more, no matter how hot they are!
I don’t think people think much about where their food comes from and what the conditions were. It is very different from when you truly were exposed to animals being butchered to going to the grocery store where it looks so detached from where it came.
I've heard this rumor and even read about this thing called intimacy. It sounds enticing... and scary.... I can't actually say I know about it first hand. I want to but I have a tendency to run from it, I guess you could say I have a love-hate relationship with a theory. But ya know, I believe that it exists, I really do. Don't know how to find it, but I do know how to be naughty and freaky!
I like to watch America's Next Top Model, not because I want to be fashion connoisseur but it is interesting to see how the industry works and watching the girls evolve. The one that just finished totally had my attention from the shear point that I really didn't want to see Melrose win. Sounds trite possibly, but she seemed so very ugly on the inside that it was mind boggling that she made it the final two. Up-tight, controlling, perfectionist freak. To me she was one of ugliest girls on the show. It says a lot about the industry that she made it so far and a lot about spin television that they probably kept her on the show to the end just to keep annoyed people like me watching. My point in the tirade is that beauty is so much more than a hot body and nice hair.
I've been trying to slowly transition to organic products for a while. Yes, it can cost a little more but that's why I've chosen to transition slowly. Not to mention that finding a replacement product you like can actually take a few tries. I can recommend Body + Soul magazine as a good reference source. Their product reviews have given me a place to start when I'm looking to try something new. Also, I usually check out the websites of the advertisers as a reference.
