We all know that guy with a Polo pique shirt and white classic skinny shorts and the oh-so-sexy loafers that bring out his muscular calves like he’s some sort of modern day Dean Martin. That guy that usually drives a Mercedes or a BMW with some hot blonde in the passenger seat. I realized that guys like him don’t have crow feet around their eyes, don’t have wrinkles on their foreheads, and definitely don’t have spots because why the hell worry?! They usually have the softest, gelled-up hair, the brightest smile that you could spot 10 miles away, and the physique only a pro football player would have. Guys like him are sexy and they know it; they even make sure they stay that way till they’re 50. They’re probably told so every day by some chick on Twitter or some random girl driving by him in traffic flipping her hair at him and pretending not to notice his girlfriend. Guys like him fall for their equivalent; the school’s hottest chica. The one with the Megan Fox body, Angelina Jolie lips, Kim Kardashian’s trunk, and Kate Hudson’s hair.
Guys and girls like them never go for anything but … them! They don’t want to try hanging out with the geeks even if they’re just as cool, they don’t want to make small talk with the “not-so-cool” crowd because they’re too afraid it’ll hinder their swag, and they most certainly don’t want to be seen wearing anything but Polo’s and Burberry shirts because that’s what the cool kids do. They go through life getting everything they ever wanted because well, good genes and that bubble of perfection they live in. Most of them don’t really know the value of money; they don’t know the value of people either. They don’t know that their mobile bills are probably someone else’s life-savings. They don’t know that their latest smart phone can educate a child in their own country for 2 whole years. They don’t know that their allowance could feed a family of three for a week. But what they do know, what obviously matters the most, is the fact that they’re sexy and everyone knows it.
Before you get me all wrong and think I'm some toothless hag that’s just jealous, don’t kid yourself here, I'm sure you know at least one person who’s like that! One person, whether it’s a guy or girl, that would go to Louis Vuitton and buy the whole store if someone was there to help them carry all the bags instead of donating even half the amount to an under-developed school. They are sexy and they know it; but what they don’t know is in real life that doesn’t really matter. Outside of school and outside of that hard-shell bubble, live the wrinkly, worried people who don’t know where they’ll be sleeping tonight. The people that work so hard through the day to be able to put bread on the table at night. The people that are poor and they also know it, and there’s nothing they can do about it.
Whether you’re Sexy or Poor reading this just stop and think for a second: how have I helped someone else out today? How have I contributed to the well-being of others for at least once this year? What positive impact have I made on my society or people that surround me? It doesn’t matter if you’re good looking or not, rich or not, or even cool or not, what matters is if you can help each other out or not!
