From Annie Lennox: Humility is not a quality thats very much - TopicsExpress



          

From Annie Lennox: Humility is not a quality thats very much valued in Western cultural terms. We are encouraged to be full of ourselves, confident, extrovert and flagrantly self serving. Value is less placed in the more quiet, self effacing person.. You have to be an alpha male/female winner.. Out there.. Up there.. Bold as brass and showing it all through the bling and shine of your accoutrements..your fashion sensibility.. your fame ..wealth ..lifestyle..status or celebrity value..To me this represents the most devaluing in human terms. When people are given value through these means it counts for nothing at all.. This is the vapidity of the society and culture were living in right now from my perspective..Are we going to hell in a basket? Let me know.. Im not feeling too optimistic right now.
