open your soul,you're not a paper doll

If there was one thing that I've learned over the past 20 years of my life (besides the Pythagorean theorem that no matter how hard I try will most likely never leave my brain), it would be that true happiness does not rely on money or beauty. People tend to think that with money that can now buy beauty will come internal satisfaction, but in my opinion, it is not the case. Take Marilyn Monroe as an example: basically THE sex symbol of the century who is still adored by millions, an icon whose legacy carries to this day, a man magnet who could get anyone or anything she ever wanted, and a beauty queen who ended her life on a very tragic note.

#MadExcitedToTurnUp? Our society has come to the point where happiness is defined by the amount of Instagram followers and beauty is measured by the amount of likes under your picture. We constantly have to prove to the world that we indeed do have a social life by posting a million pictures with our "besties" and "sisters for life" to whom in reality we barely even talk to. We always try to measure up to some unachievable fucked up standards, and by doing so we forget what we truly are. By constantly putting up this facade our generation is slowly starting to forget where true happiness does lie. And that sacred but unfortunately forgotten place is simply called a soul. Remember that word? With all the superficiality that's being constantly installed in us by the social media, our interest to dig deeper is slowly drifting away. So no wonder why depression rates in the United States are higher than ever before. The difference between human beings and paper dolls is that besides outer appearance humans have something to them on the inside as well…or at least should have something to them. So, my darlings, my advice for tonight is very simple, dig deeper, or you will turn into a paper doll.
