Jodokast is a tad cruel. Maybe those who are so critical of others need to take a look at themselves
I don't think I was being cruel in the least. The one thing that I did NOT
forget is that this IS volunteer work. That everything we do is for a charities and a good cause. So on that note, I would never dare say that someone couldn't dress up no matter they look or how
unauthentic their costume looked, if it's for a good cause.
Please elaborate though. Take a good look at ourselves? Well, let's see: I am involved in the fitness industry, so I - on a physical standpoint - take very good care of myself, my health, and my well-being. The body is our temple, it is what is keeping us alive on this planet, so we need to take care of it. If you refuse to take care of yourselves, that is your choice, but clearly you do not have a positive outlook on your life.
If you're suggesting I need to
look at myself from the inside, fine. Once again, I want to help people, it's why I chose this industry. I want to motivate, make people believe, and lengthen their life-span so they can enjoy each and every moment of it. If someone chooses to smoke, eat fast food all the time, drink excessive, and CHOOSE to shorten their lifespans, I will not pity them when they wonder
why did this happen to me. That's not being cold. It was conscious decision after conscious decision that set someone down that path.
Once again, I just find it a bit ironic: we have such strict requirements on every minute detail of each and every costume. Yet the big picture - the person wearing it - we completely ignore.
