My last rant about world being superficial... and that people cover their 'flaws' with all kinds of make up and dyes... And that those who sell these things have gotten the world to believe that they need it... Well...

This is what sellers do. They try to make you think you need what they are selling, so that you will buy it and keep buying it in the future. But there is a fine line between what you need and what you just want. And the things YOU want, others may not want.

Basically, we REALLY don't have to do anything, except sleep and die. We don't have to wash ourselves. We don't have to eat. We don't have to talk to anyone.

But... if you don't wash yourself, you will start to stink. If you don't eat, you will die. If you don't talk to anyone, you are pretty much on your own... even when you would need someone's help.

You don't have to buy a house that needs electricity, or water. But if you want those, you will have to pay for those. To pay those, you need money. And to get money, you can try to ask others, but usually people don't want to give thier money away for free. So the best idea would be to do something to someone who can and agrees to give you money for you to do something for her/him. Most of the people get themselves jobs. This is doing something for money. Some peoples' jobs are someplace else, than at their home town. So they also need money to travel.

So now you have a job and you get money to get electiricity and water. But wait... if you don't eat, you will die. And you don't want that. You rather die for getting too old, than to starve... So you must eat. And to eat, you have to get food. You can try to grow that yourself, or go to the store to buy food. So you need money for food too. Since it is easier to just walk in a store to buy food, you rather do that instead of trying to grow it yourself. ... Next day you go to work, but because you don't wash yourself, people have started to complain about your smell. Your boss tells you to wash up, or else they will have to let you go. So you go to the store buy washing stuff and then wash yourself with the water you are paying to be delivered through pipes at your house.

Where am I getting with this? Money. Money has become a thing that makes everything happen. When you walk to a store to get food, there's someone there doing their job as cashier, and does that to get money. When you get on a buss, also there is someone just doing their job to get money. The stores are there, because someone saw an opportunity to make money with food. But food is something we need to live.

Also, stinking near other people is also something, that we need to pay attention to. Smells can cause people to vomit, or get headaches, so to smell as little as you can is preferable, especially if you work at a place that has a lot of people at.

We don't have to wear clothes, but since nakedness can be quite destractive to some people, if not all, it's preferable that people do wear clothes. This is also good way to protect your body from infections.

So, to me what matters the most is basic hygiene, and that we're wearing some clothes, and at least try to get along with people. Person's physical appearance should not be that important. But it's peoples' desire to be beautiful, is what has led to the business of fashion. But because this isn't exactly what we really need, they have had to make us think that we must look beautiful, and wear certain kinds of clothes at certain 'season', so that they could get money at least as well as grocery stores.

As an artist, I think clothes design as an art too. As well as hairdressers. It's creative. It's fun to do. And it comes from our brains. It's good, that nowadays fashion is more accepting, than it was in the past, since everyone has their own 'visions' and sense of style... But there are still very much discrimination, when it comes to appearances...

If you asked me how would I like people to dress like, my answer would be 'heavy/gothic chicks/dudes', since I personally like that style, but I'm not gonna demand people to dress that way, because I know there are very much different kinds of people, who have their own styles. There are people, who could not care less how they dress like. I personally have those seasons too. I simply don't find it fair, that someone who doesn't look like how I would like to them look like comes to me and tells me how I should look like.

People are different. It would be so great if the world finally would understand what it means.

Yeah the world's really shallow when you search through it. I guess people try to make meaning of their lives. The general idea in the world of cement and electricity that we've created for ourselves is that the more money you have, the better off you'll be. Only, we know that the more green you have, the more you realise you're actually not happy. 
So the question comes down to what are we missing?
From my own life and experiences, I know that the answer is God. He's changed my whole life. 
But hey, now I'm categorised as a religious nut trying to stuff a book down your throat. I'm not. I can only answer with what I know to be actual from my own questioning of what life is. I know that when you're sick of what you're life has become, and you feel rather than know there's something else, test God out. He answers a sincere person. I know because, He answered me. I've seen Him answer others too. 
I call this truth, because this is my reality.
