everyone these days behaves like an influencer at least on social media and in real life well struggling between a 9 to 5 job i guess.
My point being that cameras were there in the old days, pictures were taken in the old days but pictures were taken for only ourselves not to show other people, when are parents would click our pictures it was not to post them anywhere but just for their happines and memories,
These days with the insane usage of these social media platforms people want only pretty pictures not for themselves but to post it on social media, for other people to believe that the picture is pretty. Nobody lives in the moment , sees the beauty thats in front of them , no they will take a picture first from all angles then spend 5 to 10 minutes cropping it and evrything and then think about a caption and then post. We dont realize that so much of our mind is preoccupied in these thoughts that we forget to actually feel the beauty and appreciate it,
Its not only the young people but in fact people of all ages are falling into the endless trap of social media, looking at the relatives or colleages photos and subconsicely we feel jealous and we then comapare, and probably become unhappy
If someone we know puts pictures of themsevles on a vaccation we feel unhappy because we feel we are stuck at home, even if something bad happens to that person on the trip hes not going to post that he will only post the scenery and him pretending to be really happy and we feel low, i mean thats so wrong but anyhow that how it happens
The beauty of any picture is decided by the number of likes it get, on social media, instead of learning useful skills and chores in the house required for adulting young girls and boys are engaged in doing makeup and making reels and then gets hungry for the likes it gets. well this blog is not about dissing social media, its about how people are not living their lives, but living their lives for other people through . social media. People live in two worlds and one of them is of social media, and their personalities can be very different on both of them ;)
There s this annoying misconseption that if you dont post your life on social media then you aint got one interesting enough,
Friends and groups click pictures to post and tag each other, then write cheesy messages on friendship which they don t probably mean, if they mean something to you , say it on their faces do things together
why do u want to display it to the world?
Social media has definetely connected everyone and brought the world closer but in today fast paced life i believe it has become a really obsessive competiton on who has more followers, more likes, made more reels, whos more aesthetic?
If not realized soon it can become very dangerous something which no one wants.
