Under the Influence

Under control and under the influence.

So many opinions limit our growth.

It affects you and me both. Television,

music, people, and social media

influence us. It destroys trust within

ourselves. We can think on our own,

but it’s hard when we watch people

with microphones. Consumerism

eats away at what’s important.

And then we wonder where our cash

went. Advertisers sell us crap that

takes our attention away from

the baby on our lap. We need

to think this or think that. We

need to be skinny when we are

not fat. Influence is a nuisance.

It can also be positive, too. It depends

on who we look up to. At the end

of the day, don’t think or do it just

because you’re under the influence.
