Introduction

Today we are all sort of victims of our desire to possess something. Not anything, but what would be appreciated and admired by others. I wouldn't say it is necessarily bad, but it most certainly could lead to eternal unsatisfaction and will for more.

However, we tend to forget what we were given by birth. It is not touchable or easy to estimate, but it has a very large influence on our future. It should never be stolen from us, but unfortunately the forbidden fruit seem to keep its reputation of being the most interesting. Our precious individuality and uniqueness are often the most desirable 'fruit' to be taken away.

Strengthening of the media, people have got a lot of new opportunities and were able to discover talents that did not even know they possess. Media opened new, different, innovative views of the world and certain situations and also helped on defining ourselves. Still, we would be considered half blind if we did not notice negative factors which seem to have a great deal.

Is the media thief who steals our individuality? Or is it just us trying to create our identity while imitating what we see in the media? Would we behave in the same way if there wasn't for media? Is the presence of the media a gift or a threat?

These are only several questions I will be trying to answer in my future posts.

I hope you enjoy reading and pay attention to this small part of the silent manipulation of the media.
