A FEW THINGS I'VE LEARNT FROM SOCIAL MEDIA







1. A lot of people make comments because they want to be noticed.

2. Many want to just antagonize. Not necessarily because they want to, but because they want to be seen in a different light.

3. Many don't really mean what they say.

4. Many just want to shake tables. This obviously comes with the negatives and positives.

The bottom line is that; we all want to be heard. Observers will say, 'but I only observe.' No dear, even you who observe, when you write, you write because you want someone to hear (read) what you post. You might not care about the likes, but you care about your message being passed.

Truth is, you have the responsibility of telling yourself the truth and living the truth; which is you.

You are your reality.
Others have the reality of you in their heads, but you can't live other peoples reality for you. You have to FIND YOU, BUILD YOU, and LIVE YOU.


Before you make a post or write a comment on any page, ask yourself; "Is this for eye service? Is this truly me? Is this me being positively relevant to the world?"

PS: The true you in a certain context might not be positive because of so many things, ranging from bias, nepotism, anger (because you have been directly affected) , culture, religion, etc. So before you post or comment, think of the people your comment could have a negative influence on.

Even me sef, I think before I comment because I might be boiling on an issue and speaking about it might cause an unnecessary controversy. Laslas, I'll read the comments, like and agree on what I agree on and disagree on what I disagree on, just within my space (my head). I must not drag people to have the same struggles I have.

We can't argue that everyone is a working progress. Please work on giving hope to the world, especially in this Covid-19 pandemic season, when everyone's voice is important.

PS TO READERS:


  • Don't believe everything you read.
  • Evaluate what goes into your mind. And
  • Have the discipline of detaching your mind from accepting what won't make you better.

My Thoughts.
