Consequences depends on us

Everyone wants to enjoy their life and there is nothing wrong with having that kind of mindset Most of the people want to enjoy a luxurious life. They try to show how good they are in front of others. Unfortunately, people are not so flawless. They have limitations and they cannot enjoy their lives how they want to. The limitation can be lack of financial backup, lack of talent or capability or lack of many other skills. Actually, this is the thing that makes humans different from others. Someone who may be talented in a specific sector or category may not be skillful in other categories.

Most people want fame as well as popularity but not everyone deserves it. From an ethical perspective, one needs to earn those things through their own effort. Everyone is smart capable enough for it, but most people try to show up and try to prove that they are better than others. It's hard to prove in offline world but now we are living in digital world and through social media proving that we are living a better life even if we are in difficult condition is very easy. It's because people cannot verify many things in social media unless they live close to them. Does it have any kind of impact?

Let me share some examples. I have seen many people go to restaurants and sit at a table. They just click some pictures and after clicking pictures they come out again and they post those pictures in social media saying they came to the restaurant. Again, there are some people who saw a nice car and in front of the car they captured some good pictures. And later they share those pictures on social media and some also say the car belongs to them. In a word they just pretend to be living a classic life. They just do it to show them superior in front of others in social media when the reality is almost the opposite. They are allowed to share anything as their social media belongs to them and nobody can force them or decide for them what to share and what not to.

Unfortunately, many people get influenced by seeing those contents in social media and they start to compare themselves with those people. Naturally they feel they are living a life of hell, and they feel bad about their lifestyle and sometimes it affects their mood and sometimes it also becomes a reason for clashes between close people. Should we blame those influencers or those people who are sharing those contents? Absolutely not. It's because we are the decider on how to take those things. We should not take those things seriously because if we become serious about it, we are bound to feel bad because who can live a better life just compared with the fantasy life?

Social media is for entertainment, and we should keep it in mind. We should not take it too seriously to compare ourselves with those people we see on social media. I feel it ridiculous to see when some people even get jealous to see so many likes or views of others content. Getting thousands or millions of likes is not a difficult thing, using boots. If some people are satisfied using those tricks, then they are allowed to do it. But if other people are jealous because of it, it's their fault and they may face negative consequences for it.
