Consumerism

In our daily lives we tend to buy things to give pleasure to our whims. Things like shoes, clothing, perfume, even some food. But there are times when we abuse it and let ourselves be carried away by the advertising of products. The most popular is the Valentine's Day, and I can not deny that this day we spend like crazy, well if we have those who give, but really that is pure consumerism. Because we do not need a special date to give a special gift to someone you love. Another example is Christmas, gifts, gifts and more gifts!. But who am I to judge, if I must confess that I have fallen into the clutches of consumerism sometimes hahaha!. Finally it's your money and you know where they spend it:) Amen!

Progress?

No doubt we live in a changing world. Many things are not like when our parents were young, including some that are not even like when we were children. And that technology is evolving too fast. For example cell phones today are not like 4 years ago, and 4 more years, will certainly not like today. Thanks to technology, have facilitated many things in everyday life. But not everything is good, since so much territory that was green, has been industrialized and therefore destroyed. Sometimes we do not think that the planet is being used increasingly faster. They do not meditate on a flower is more beautiful than a cell, that the beauty of a forest is not even comparable to a factory. We must be aware and take care of our planet, and is not this against progress, but as I heard once there, a mistake is not corrected with another mistake.
