Ever since reality television made its way into the mainstream media, our society has slowly been moving to the realization that there is great talent within each and every one of us. We're finding out that, talent, is not limited to a select few, it's within everyone. This is what trends in television tell us about humanity.

The benefits of having an open mind cannot be overstated in today's society.

Alcohol is a product that our society associates with having fun and good times. We're programmed to think that alcohol can solve all our problems. Commercials on television give us the impression that things will get better if we just have a few drinks of alcohol and relax.

We live in a society where we're conditioned to always be striving for more; for bigger and better things.When do we ever arrive at a happy place? Do we arrive there today, tomorrow, next week, next month, next year? Hopefully, by reading this lens; you'll start to recognize the things in your life that you do have and are able to enjoy. I think, it's important to take the time to acknowledge the things in our lives that bring us joy.Also, there is a saying that whatever you think about expands. My theory is that by focusing on the things that we are grateful for on a regular basis; is that we attract more things to be grateful for.I've found that by having an attitude of gratitude, I can enjoy the abundance that surrounds me.The more that I'm grateful for what I have, the more I can appreciate life in the present moment. The more I live in the present moment, the greater I can build the stepping stones for a great future. I've also found that by having an attitude of gratitude; that I'm more focused on the solutions, than the problems. So, it's important to remember the power of gratitude.

I was hit by a car when I was three years old, in 1974. I have grown up all my life with the effects of the head injury. I am now 39 years old. When I was hit by the car, I was in a coma for two weeks afterwards. I had to learn how to do everything all over again. The effects of the accident, left me with coordination and learning problems. As well as a life-long struggle with depression. I also still have a mild tremor in my hands. I am writing this in the hope that I will provide encouragement to people who have had head injuries and that they should never give up. The only people who really know what the effects are, are those that live with them every day. Life is a learning and a growth experience. Just remember this, where there's a will, there's a way. I am constantly pushing the limits of my abilities and am therefore, constantly growing; both physically and mentally. Peace...

This is a question that I ask you. Why would anybody want to be a celebrity?
