I've always thought I've had good style. You may disagree, but I think that's a talent I've been given; I can see what looks good together in different ways. I always thought I was good at being that girl who wore something out of the ordinary.
But I'm sure that if you have eyes, you've seen that what's been considered unique for as long as I can remember, is no longer. It is now mainstream- it's what every one's wearing.
When I was little, everything held such mystery to me. I was excited to know of the dark part of history, to experience things no one had, and most importantly, to be someone no one else was. But then I grew up and realized that life wasn't as exciting as I had anticipated. Style is just one small way I've began to notice this.
I wonder if that's because I've grown up in such a generic generation, or if no one was as different as I had originally thought?
We've been taught that everyone is different, but guess what?
We aren't.
We are all so afraid to be something special because we all aim for the worlds approval- even if we tell ourselves that's not what we do.
But truth be told, I think
we've lost the ability to be enchanting.
How?
We are surrounded by things that make it so easy to be like everyone else:
Twitter- we adopt typing trends, we talk about the same things, we all file into the same categories.
Facebook- we all have the habit of complaining about the same things, on every side of a problem.
Pinterest- how easy is it to repin an outfit you liked that another girl repinned & so on and so forth.
I blame these things for taking away our individuality.
How sad is it that we are no longer enchanting humans with amazing imaginations and gigantic dreams? We don't aspire to be princesses or doctors anymore, we don't play house with our friends and make up pretend boyfriends. We don't scare ourselves silly over a game we made up purely in our heads.
How sad that we are no longer enchanting.
think about deep things. it improves intellect.
