Social Media Madness!

So, I know that change is good and it is necessary but let me just say...This social media dynasty is interesting. For a better way of saying, "Who really has the time to keep up with all that?"...I mean the phones nowadays do everything but put you to sleep. Good grief! And who knows they might have a phone that can do that, I'm just saying. LOL!!...I just don't understand. So of course I had to analyze the whole thing and this is what I came up with.

A few weeks ago I reactivated my Facebook page to reconnect with some of my peers, networking & preparing myself for my professional career. However, I have noticed that there is so much contamination on these social networks. Now don't get me wrong it is necessary because the world is constantly changing and one must keep up with the world, especially in the field that I am in. It is a fantastic tool for keeping up with what’s new be it concerts, books, plays etc. It is awesome for promoting certain events as well.

However, I have realized the mentality of this world is so unhealthy. That was one of my reasons for leaving Facebook the first time. This is just my opinion and how I feel but some people just take things a little bit too far and lose focus on what is important. Now on the other hand there have been some great and powerful words that have been posted that have helped to give great insight for me. It is not all negative!

 In a way social media has disconnected us from human connection. What happen to those random phone calls you would make to your home-girl or great aunt? Just calling to say hello didn't want anything just wanted to hear your voice. Or what happen to those random letters or cards you would drop in mail entitled "Just thinking of you"... We as a society have become lazy! I am guilty of this myself.
Doesn't look like it is going to change anytime soon!

Social media is important nowadays for your voice to be heard... Perfect example: My blog! I am grateful for this platform to be able to express my thoughts and to shoot some good energy into the world it can be a blessing or a curse it is how you use it. As they say "whatever floats your boat"... Unfortunately, I can't hide from this "Social Media Madness"; I must keep up with the program... You do what you got to do! As for me I chose to keep a positive light around me and welcome those that want to enjoy the sun with me. It is a good world out there and I am enjoying every second of it!

Enjoy your weekend!



Till next time!
