Today, people pay much attention to improving their appearance and fashion. Obviously, this tendency is allowed from better financial abundance. However, I am not positive with this trend because it seems that many people only concentrate on personal external factors. So, from this tendency, people overlook internal virtues. For these reasons, I believe that people need to broaden their sight into other internal aspects such as dedication and service for others.
To begin with, people should widen their mental vision because by paying too attention to their appearance, they can not concentrate on their works. To illustrate my point, I will show my experience. Several years ago, I was much interested in improving my appearance, so I began buying clothes and cosmetics. For this, all of my expenditures was consumed showing up myself. Unfortunately, I could not recognize my bad habits, I wasted my time and money in that time. It was obvious my fault. Likewise, many people in this society make mistakes like my case using their money and time.
Besides, people are losing an important virtues in living. In the flow of an appearance-oriented society, people judge other people on other's appearance. Now, this problem came to the fore as harmful effect of lookism. People need to correct it's biased mindset and make a judge on one's mind. I believe that these side-effect of paying much emphasis on personal appearance has reached a very serious level. In this regard, people should divert their focus into other good things such as their works.
To sum up, we faced a biased concentration on our appearance. Besides, this trend lead people to wrong judgements and wast of their time. Thus, people need to be interested in other good active such as service for other and study for their internal virtues. |
