Something is seriously wrong with society...

I have been watching and observing things for many years now and have come to a rather truthful truth.. for want of a better word. There is something seriously wrong with society as a whole.

People just have complete disregard for the safety and wellbeing of anyone else but themselves anymore. At the traffic lights you see people cutting in and pushing and carrying on like wild animals… What is wrong with us?

I think that the only reason we as a society still exist is because of laws that we put in place when we where all still human beings, before becoming what we have now become. If not for those laws we would have probably wiped each other out many decades ago.

When I was growing up family and friendship meant something. The people who I befriended as a child are still my friend now in my mid thirties. Now days the youth seem to change friends to the one who is trending and not stick with the ones who are true friends.

You go out to a restaurant and watch a group of 5 or 6 teens all sitting quietly with their phones in front of their faces… Nobody says a word but I strongly believe they are all somehow communication through their mobile devices.

We have become so un-plugged from reality and more plugged into the world wide web than the machines where in the movie "Terminator" and nobody thinks this is a scary thought.

People get attacked or hurt and what does everyone do? "they grab their camera phones and start shooting video or pics????? "

Students at university level are striking… yes people students are striking because they want MORE FOR FREE….. They would rather burn down their library for MORE FOR FREE than learn from that same library how to become successful in life.

People commiting horrible acts on innocent animals… Dragging dogs behind cars etc????

WTF????????

When are we a an advanced society going to start caring about those around us and stop caring about what we have. The only real value in life is in the relationships that we have, and I am not talking about the online relationship you are having with the married man or woman that you have never met. That does not count.

Human beings need to start being held accountable for their behaviour. Until this happens we will keep spiralling around the drain.

Hopefully one day this world will be the beautiful place it once was. But this will only happen once we start affecting real change. Positive change does not just happen, It needs to be nurtured and made into a reality.

Start taking care of those around you instead of pushing them away and fighting with them over really arbitrary and irrelevant things.

Become what we believe we are… Take a look in the mirror and see who you are, and who you want to be. What do you want to be remembered as?

Think about tomorrow for once and not only about NOW and TODAY.

Serious Back Pain

Well. After spending the last two weeks adjusting our diets and training routines I made the mistake of overdoing my lower back. Yesterday was a day that I could barely walk yet I was out and about trying to do what I do.

Today I had to once again venture out as I was planned to be shooting a test shoot today for one of what could become my biggest clients to date. Can you imagine your dream coming true… Well this is it for me :-)

Now if only I could loose this incredibly sore back before actually having to make use of it.

Well despite having said sore back I will still make my way to gym today with Liz as I have to train arms (which are from yesterday) as well as shoulders today. Will use isolated exercises to ensure I do not put any un-due or un-welcome strain onto my back.

I hope everyone else out there in Gym land remembers this… If you are training hard and putting strain on your back remember to make use of some form of support such as a lifting belt or something.

This could have ended up being a lot worse for me had I pushed through and carried on.

Have a fantastic week everyone.
