Corporate America

Corporate America tells me that I can be the me I deserve to be and reach my pinnacle and be loved and admired by just wearing the right clothes, getting the right look, having the right body, exuding the right attitude. I can bling my way to fame, fortune and self-adoration. All I have to do is just do it and be all I can be. Hell, I can consume my way to happiness.

But who's telling me that compassion, sharing and community might also make me a happier, healthier person? After all, the newspaper story about these values will never be as big as the full page advertisement for more stuff.
