What Is Your Reality?

I know this blog is about celebrities, but I really wanted to share this poem that I wrote today with you guys. It fulfills the purpose of this blog which is to let you know that fame and fortune is not all what its cracked up to be. I hope it touches you...



Every day that we turn on the TV
We are faced with what the world call reality
How is it that we’re supposed to relate
To serial daters and high divorce rates?
C’mon man seriously
Are you telling me this is now our reality?
These celebrities really baffle me
It grieves me to see
These women now on TV

It was not long ago that women fought so that we
Would be able to see
Women in the workplace one day,
I look at these women and sigh
Thinking why
Are you singing and dancing about a Video Phone?
Of all the things that can be brought to our attention
Aids and HIV are never thought to be mentioned

Are women now subject to the lust of the eyes
That we fail to realize
That there is more to life than dancing around looking pretty?
I think it’s such a pity
To know how many girls don’t know their worth
To know that in Christ we have been re birthed
There is no need to look at these people on the TV
Who have their own perceptions of reality
P…P…P…Poker Face just doesn’t apply to me

Don’t look at them, look to the cross
I know without it we would be lost
Just look at those you watch continually on the TV
Are they not lost in their own versions of reality?
Even with all the cars, money, and success
We hear on E! News that Britney Spears is depressed

Is that really what you want your life to be?
That false perception of reality?
Do yourself a favour
Instead of focusing on their lives focus on your own
We are the only ones who will now be leaders of tomorrow

C’mon these people aren’t role models
I’ve told you what they are, so now you know
That you should not behave as they do
Their lives are not what you should aspire to
Let’s make a decision to make a change
Let’s examine our lives and rearrange
It to be what we know it should
Look at your own life, take a look and see
What is your perception of what is called reality?
