Lives going ONLINE

 

Digital Era has caught our lives in a juxtaposition. On one side we cannot imagine our lives without it, on the other hand, it has mingled too much with our lives.

I am not against using it, or not using it. Who the hell I am to pass a verdict on such issues. But I thing loneliness during the holiday season has caught up with me, and I need to write something, like anything else.

I started off writing this article for something else but after two lines, I asked myself,why am I writing today, the last time I posted something online was on 10th July, from then on now 25th December.

I was going through my Instagram, Whatsapp, Facebook etc. stories and I saw the number of posts they were posting, The maximum were from the people who were alone or had no plans for Christmas like me.

I realized something about us, as users of social media. We are trying to compensate the loneliness inside ourselves by posting every small detail of our personal lives. And the implication are tremendous because the person who posts them, tries to fill that empty void with comments and likes. Also the person who is seeing those posts are instantaneously jealous of them though they have everything with them, they are surrounded by their loved ones. But the filters on the Instagram even make your Dal Fry look like a gourmet dish. Thus in turn, this thing spreads like a disease.

Now the person on the other hand, has to make other people jealous, so instead of going on a holiday and really enjoying, coming closer to the nature. They just keep on posting their itsy-bitsy things of travel on their social media. They don’t know while they creating stories on their Insta, they are missing the real stories of the adventure of their life. Photos are best ways of capturing memories I know, but our mind is the best Insta filter you can have. The more you will process those images inside your head, the more beautiful it will become. People are more interested in hearing your experiences than seeing your unreal Filter capped photos.

So next time when you see a lot of posts from someone, don’t feel jealous, maybe a little sorry, that they don’t have anyone to share their memories, so they are sharing it with a virtual world, like me 🙂

PS:- I know its hypocritical, but my post is like a picture, I had no one to tell to at this point of time.

Merry Christmas Everyone

  1. You really make it appear really easy along with your presentation however I in finding this matter to be really something which I feel I would by no means understand. It kind of feels too complex and very large for me. I am taking a look forward to your next publish, I will try to get the hang of it!

  2. I am no longer positive the place you’re getting your info, however good topic. I must spend some time learning more or working out more. Thank you for great information I used to be on the lookout for this information for my mission.
