15 Illustrations Depicting What It’s Like To Be Born In The 21st Century
These witty cartoons present some awesome and, at times, disturbing insights on life as we know it.
When cartoons are mentioned, people often think of whimsical works of art. After all, the word itself is often associated with children’s entertainment. Indeed, many of us seek out cartoons when we need a good laugh or something to cheer us up.
However, cartoons can also be used as a platform for though-provoking messages. Those created to accompany editorials or opinion pieces, for instance, certainly deliver quite a punch. In fact, some of them can stand alone and present really sharp insights without a single word.
That said, here are some cartoons that will surely make a lot of people stop and think.
1. We often want what we haven't got.
For many of us, the grass always looks greener on the other side. We never feel content and are always envious of what other have.
2. Reality is right between the lines.
We all choose our forms of escape from reality. Others are distracted by love affairs forged online. There are also those who are lost in the world of books.
3. What enriches your mind?
We need money, but how far can it actually go if we don’t have our mind in the right place?

It always feels horrible when everyone gangs up on you.
7. It's always better when we are together.
Unity is the key to solving most of the world’s problems.
8. What you see is sometimes not what you get.
Technology has made it possible for people to get away with unsavory motives.
9. You really can't sit around and do nothing.
You need to take action for anything to happen.
10. Hold on to your parents.
Listen to your parents and never let go of the good things that they teach you.
11. Many of us can't handle the truth.
It’s easy to sweep things under the rug.
12. It pays to do your own thing.
This is why we shouldn’t get distracted.
13. They're both fat for the wrong reasons.
The rich eat too much, while the poor eat the cheapest things that often make them fat without making them healthy.
14. Manipulators often claim, "I'm just like you."

Artist Creates Realistic Women Sculptures That Will Make You Take A Second Look
A Chinese artist is creating realistic life-size sculptures of women and her works are making people’s jaws drop.
Sculptures might be one of the oldest forms of art. Ancient people started to carve even before they learned to paint of design their dwellings. The earliest drawings were even carved on rocks.
For thousands of years, sculptures have filled many roles in human life. Statues were built to represent kings, later on to represent the gods of the Greeks and much later on to represent the leaders of the Romans.
Since the dawn of carving until the present day, sculptures have been largely monumental. Cities from all over the world have piece or two to flaunt, only proving that such form of art still greatly influences a region’s culture.
Prehistoric sculptures that still survive today show that the earliest creations of artists were not that beautifully made. However, as the world evolves, so does the tools for carving improve. From carved animals to guide hunters to honorary pieces to honor great soldiers, many artists today go beyond the normal, putting almost any idea into a block of wood.
