I thought abouy it and I was thinking differently than I usually do. I used to think having nice clothes makes you gaudy. But, having nice clothes often makes you feel good as a person. And who am I to deprive myself of this. But the contrasting thought is the money. Am I an immoral person to spend so much money on myself when there are people in this world who suffer from unfair consequences of crimes they did not commit. Is it fair for me to help mysself when I COULD be spending that time to help someone else not as fortunate as I am to be born into a prosperous life? As I thought of this I realized, I don't know. I shall never know. Maybe. I thought, would having nice clothes make me appeal others better? Dose that truly matter? Should it matter? Should I change my life and appearence to fit others perspective which may or may not meet my perspective just to acheive happiness? THAT, would be immoral. But than again, a person who dresses sensibly would be seen to the world as appropriate and good. Making your self more attractive is much different than assimilating yourself to the status quo, so it has it's different sides to it.

And ask you speak it makes me think of selfish people that spend so much money on clothes that dont need when theres people all over the world that suffer of coldness or even of hunger. we try so hard to make ourselves look good and we have our parents work their butts off when some of us dont deserve it i wish we can all appriciate what we have.
