LIFE IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD.

avatar
Technology has so much developed to a great length to the extent at which is gradually becoming a world of it's own. In these modern days you can find love, the marketplace, schools, skills, jobs and every other basic need of humans on the internet, and all these were created by the same humans for the purpose of making life more easy and flexible.

However, peer pressure seems to rule over all. Apart from meeting up with human needs, technology has also made the area of communication very easy and accessible to the point at which we could even communicate with one another without having to talk because of the availability of chats on different social media apps. These apps were created for the purpose of comfort and also to cure boredom, But along the line some humans ended up being affected by what we see on social media platforms. They crave the feeling of wanting to be like the other, not minding how much it's going to cost them. At that point, you'll come across people (girl’s especially) who use their school fees to get the latest iPhone 15 or anything that has to do with the latest all because they want to flint around and follow trends. The social media platform has ended up becoming a den of lies, where lies are being said all just for trend. Nobody, absolutely nobody wants to be seen as less important and to achieve that the majority would want to pose what they're not just to pass out a message to their opponent.

The real life we live in is already tough enough, I believe the wise know this already and give that energy to making something out of life. Then, boldly upload on social media to share our “Success Story”. I think if we grind harder, we might not even be the first to announce our story to the world before they hear of it. At the end of it all, only the influential and honest ones are respected in the world of “social media''.

Also, 8 out of 10 people find joy on the internet especially when we come across funny comics, skits or even comments made on the internet. On the other hand, some of these markers have no joy in them. Unfortunately, we find out about their depression after the news of their death. If not depression, it could be illness or heart break but mostly they go through challenging events that they would rather prefer to bare on the inside and be cheerful on the outside.

In conclusion, the right to social media is given to all and the influence of peer pressure is one great ruler of the internet world. And that's why, other than businesses that have been checked and cross checked, we should never take the world of social media seriously, it's just a reflection of the real world. Humans rights are given freely and equally, due to this we are not to judge others nor are we to envy achievements rather we are to appreciate success and work harder on becoming what we appreciated.

Thank you for stopping by my post ❤

I know someone who used her hostel fees to buy iPhone 7 Plus at that time
And was now perching someone throughout the whole semester
She did it because that’s what she was seeing all the influences use …just imagine
You don’t even know what how they bought those phones…..and just like that you put yourself in that stress

Exactly the point.
At the end, if that friend refuses to help her, she's automatically tagged as being wicked 💔🤦

The internet can have both positive and negative effects on us depending on how we use it. Most things we see on social media are false and we shouldn’t even believe them.
