Our Society of Today… Or What It Seems to be
Relating what society is beginning to do or what it will do if we don’t change…
Many times us humans go throughout our lives just “going through the motions” type of
way. We take almost everything for granted and we hardly realize what selfish lives we are
living. But we rush through life not noticing the little things in life. Things like that little kitten
stranded in a box or the little bird that’s hurt and is calling for help. People just don’t notice
these things because they do not make it a priority to help someone who is having trouble.
The two-faced liar called- temptation
Temptation can ruin a person in a blink of an eye. Temptation encircles us everyday at
anytime. We look around and we think not pure thoughts, but rather dirty thoughts. Why?
Because that is the way society has issued itself to the world. Back in Renaissance times or early
periods of time, society was different. Society back then was simplistic, rather pure, and just
easier to live in. There was virtually nothing to tempt the public into doing bad things. The
media, TV, internet, all tempts us to do bad things and think bad thoughts. Not all media, but
most media.
Society today vs. Society back then
Society today is such a disaster that there is really no way we can fix it. Society is filled
with so much hate, crime, publicity, carnage, that people would think it is nearly impossible to
live a pure life in a society like we have today. Wrong. It is possible. I am living more of a pure
life everyday in society. Its all about the mind set. Back in the day, the people had different
thinking patterns. For example, they cared more about raising a family because that was a big
deal to them. They didn’t have time to think about the other vulgar thoughts that go through
people’s minds today. I am not accusing everyone of these such thoughts, but mainly society
itself. Some people can look past these thoughts and ignore them. I have taught myself to handle
such thoughts.
Outcome
There are ways people can block that sort of awful thinking. Think positive. Its really
simple. When people think negative thoughts, they are using the same energy that could be used
to think positive thoughts and using the energy instead to think negatively. This is unhealthy for
a lot of people especially older people. Besides, you will feel horrible all the time, not full of
energy, angry, and depressed. If people keep thinking like this and acting this way, they are
going to teach the next generation to be just like that. You don’t want your kids growing up to be
selfish, rude, and vulgar. Remember, I am not judging anyone on how they raise their kids or
how they live their life. I am just pointing out if society keeps on like this, that is how they will
end up. I am writing this article as a warning: Society has been going downhill for a long time.
If we don’t stand up for what is right and moral, then it will keep going downhill and eventually
crash. Think carefully in life because it matters…

Temptation is a very bad thing and as a society we do take a lot of things for granted, which is a real shame. I really enjoyed reading this you made some very valid point’s.

Please excuse my English, I am still young in body but experience in life and the way I have been brought up have gift me with wisdom beyond my age.
I see how society has become without good values and how the people are surrounded by desire of the heart, as you say ‘temptation’.
Honour, truth, hospitably. Forgotten values of society, because people only have bad thoughts in their mind and surrounded by negativity.
Life is not precious any more, it is a commodity we take now for granted, perhaps this is our greatest problem for we are all dead inside.
