I see the world more through a browser than any other interface, and second to most from any perspective. Because I use a Mac, perhaps my perception is not as the author intended,/a>.

Is the glass half empty or half full?
In life, it's how we see things that determine how we tackle situations and life, in general. Seeing the glass half full (optimism), helps the daily affairs of life move more smoothly, and makes life look bright and promising. Seeing the glass half empty (pessimism) saps our energy, focus and motivation to do the right things in life.
You have the power to choose.

Who defines what is beautiful?
Magazines constantly trick females into believing that perfection is a possibility. Celebrities role model a life style whereby they instinctively hide their individualisms and become clones of society. The public therefore feels compelled to achieve this definition of ‘beautiful.’ Surely, this means we size up beauty in the same way we would pick a cake at afternoon tea? We automatically judge on aesthetically pleasing form.
As young girls fail in their conquest to replicate a plastic Barbie look, they unfortunately become more aware of their flaws. They forget that beauty is the opposite of perfection - it’s about confidence, charisma and confidence. Inner beauty never needs make up. Females need to be reminded that imperfections are what make each individual human and unique. Flaws are perfection.
