Selfie is the new name for Societal Influence. It is an expression of the trancendental connection our past has with the present, affecting our future. (scroll down for the video)
I am frequently in a state of introspection. Looking back, examining past experiences and attempting to understand how they affect my behavior today. More importantly, I am constantly wondering how they are or will affect my future, and the future of those around me. There are experiences that are so intense, so negative, that a person can develop PTSD. However, what about, the smaller cases, witnessing an accident, living through a pandemic, the loss of family, friends, a career, a marriage? Can these accumulate in their affect on our psyche?
I believe that we take for granted the impact of these things. Especially when they are things we have simply witnessed. There are many things we live through and witness that affect who we are today, and how we respond to today is very likely to affect our tomorrows.
