Lifestyles of the Rich and the Famous

People want to be rich, it's a given fact. Even if you aren't materialistic or shallow, I am confident that every single person wants to be wealthy if for nothing else, so that they can life comfortably. The wealthy/rich people tend to have more fun in their lives; what does their life consist of? A lot of parties, alcohol, probably drugs and sex. They have disposable income so it's easy for them to attain all of these things. I am sure doing these things and having that lifestyle is fun but it's one of those things that you get tired of.

I strongly believe that the rich have a social responsibility to be the 'good examples.' Now wealthy people are stereotyped, they are shown to have big and clean homes, listen to classical music, dress properly, etc., these are the good things that lifestyle brings. The problem arises when life is all about having fun with your money and living life like it's one big party. The more money you have, the more good you should be doing with it; you have a responsibility. Wise people will tell you that having a lot of money can be a curse because there is so much responsibility that comes with it and not everybody can handle that.

The richest people should set a good example, like I said. They should be smart, responsible, noble and most importantly, humble. If having money wasn't related to this wild, "rock star"kind of life, I think the trend would eventually go away. People who aren't rich live that kind of lifestyle because they want to feel like they are famous, if even for a moment.

Real Men

The definition of being a "man" has changed through the time and is different throughout various cultures. When you look back at the beginning of mankind with Adam and Eve, they were created equal. Adam and Eve were man and woman, both living an equal life; neither had any power over the other. Throughout the period when men and women were separated into tribes, the men hunted and provided meat and food while the women gathered and tended to their camps (of course this is surely exaggerated as there were more tasks and responsibilities that went into their every day living). When looking through history, men have always have more rights and control than women. Somewhere in time, the natural traits that most men possess became the way to judge a person's value. Men are naturally stronger, more muscular and taller than women. Are these ways to judge a person's worth or value? Certainly not. God has created us equal, in His eyes but assigned us different characteris...

Bonnaroo 2012

Greetings all! We have arrived at the start of another wonderful summer (hopefully). Summer has always been my favorite season (not because my birthday just so happens to fall smack dab in the center of it) but because of the freedom most people tend to have during the season. Every Summer that I can remember, I remember vividly; the smells, the music, the friends and the amount of joy that I have felt with each Summer's past have been unforgettable for me. My first experience thus far this Summer season was going to Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival in Manchester, Tennessee. I love live music and the lineup was phenomenal, how could I say no? From start to finish, this was an amazing journey. I found my way from Washington, D.C. to Tennessee with two very nice women I met online from Zimride.com. I am one to trust the kindness of strangers, as it has never gotten me in to any trouble so I wasn't worried about what could have happened. I was surprised by how open, friendly...

Impermanence

I have come to a point where I realize how temporary everything is. There have been things that I thought would be a permanent in my life but things can change within one instant. Is it a bad thing? For the most part, yes. You can have somebody is the closest to you, a person you speak with every day and within one day, you can lose them forever. When I moved to California, I thought that I was going to be living there indefinitely; I did not think that I would ever move back to Virginia but a little bit over two years later, I was back. I thought that I would always want to keep my house here in Oak Hill, VA but I am so okay with moving out of it. All of this scares me so much, how little control we have in our lives. We have to remember that Allah (swt) controls everything , there is not a thing out His control. This life is temporary, every moment that we have in one that we will never have again so make the most of it.
