beauty and image vs the most important things



After reflecting on my previous post regarding young girls spending millions on beauty products I have found myself asking some questions. You see, although I'm a critical viewer of media I too am influenced by the focus on outer appearances.

In our society we are judged by our appearance. The popular show what not to wear will tell you if you don't have fashionable clothes that fit well you will not be taken seriously in your workplace. And in today's society that is probably true.

So I am left asking what is the balance between taking care of your body and image, and focusing on the most important things?

Don't we spend our lives trying to answer this question for ourselves? Perhaps it changes over time as well.
