When you stand in front of a mirror what do you see? How do you feel about yourself? Is there anything you would like to change?

In most societies around our world, the media, magazines and commercials are being used to portray the perfect appearance. Our fashion models of today are used as examples of what we consider to be the modern standard of beauty. Our outer shells will be disposed at the end of our lives. Still, they have become a priority.

Children can work as an inspiration in this matter. Not only do they have a complete different sense of beauty, they are being led by their imagination, something that makes life a lot more interesting. They are not yet captivated by the norm, and they set their own priorities. It is a beautiful thing to see and it really makes you think, ‘Why did I lose my sense of self perspective?’
