What do you value?


I read this incredible blog yesterday from Justin Kownacki about how we as a culture put value on things based on what we choose to look at.

It was an eye-opener to me on culture and how it shapes us in ways that are not always apparent. For instance, when you wake up in the morning, is your first response to check twitter, facebook or email as opposed to checking news lines to see what kind of devastation is occurring in the Middle East, or how human trafficking is becoming a back yard problem in America?

Take a look at this post for yourself and see if you are as surprised as me.
