If I Were A Boy - Beyonce

This video was...it's hard to put into words. We all know what we want to find in a partner. We have our list, in our head or on paper, it doesn’t matter. We know what we have and what we want. The real question is, “Do we appreciate what we have?” Is not what we have enough? It seems as if we are in such a fast paced, judgmental world that we do not, in so many words, stop to smell the roses. We go on in life and many finding the impulse, impulses to be happy. The fastest way to get happiness would make sense to be instantly, right? But what if it hurts someone in the end? Or what if this “instant” happiness leads one alone and unhappy. Why is it that so many people do not think about the outcome? Would you rather have a penny double each day for one year? Or two billion dollars tomorrow? After 146 days, doubling a penny would accumulate to approximately $892,029,807,941,224,925,661,428,730,905,928,962,681,077.75. This is a large amount of money, definitely more than two billion dollars. But it is different with money. People think more about it. I don’t know why exactly but I have my assumptions. This video puts into perspective a common relationship. Although it is by far not the only or the most common, it is common. Why it is common, instant happiness with no care of hurt could be a reason. I am not sure. It would be much harder for me to hurt someone than to simply love them in the first place, so for me, it seems beyond crazy. It is a lot to think about, becoming the opposite sex. This video definitely does not portray all the types of men, but it does portray one. What would you choose?
