I consider myself a woman in between cultures and societal
ideologies/norms, because of this I have adopted my own belief system
picking and choosing what I find I can apply to my life. I am a seeker
of new experiences and learning opportunities. I am an idealist
learning to be sprinkled with realism. I am a daughter, sister, friend
and partner. An open minded human with basic principles of live and let
live and understand first before seeking to be understood, just don't
come knocking on my door asking me partake in your agenda(ha ha!). A
nature lover, music admirer, move maker and image
taker....www.paolamojica.com
I tend to be skeptical of mass media
therefore limit my intake. I tend to think of media as having some type
of agenda, atleast when they are trying to sell you something(idea or material). I choose
what I want access to and season it with mainstream media/news so that I
can have a sense of whats going on in the world. I don't have cable in
my household, though I am first to admit If I did I would be sucked into
watching so much more t.v.! When I do watch t.v. I am always shocked
at commercials for prescriptive drugs that seem to do more harm than
good. Hello 88 side effects! I think that part of our society has become very distant from
our bodies and each other, what we eat and where it comes from, how
that affects our health and how we are affecting each other. On that
serious note here's a link with a somewhat funny title of a book that I
shot the photographs for:
"Overcoming and Angry Vagina" by Queen Afua
Although I am far from being a luddite sometimes I think I would be very
happy having a home where I grew my own food, sewed my clothes and had
to have access to the internet! ( and I guess some money, right?) There
are lot of positive and awesome things going on in the world and you can
find them via the web.
