A lot of people lived in the world. But only a few people have actually lived. Those that lived are the ones who had their stories written, not by themselves, but by those who learned from them to live their own lives!

A very important question asked to begin with is, “do I control my life, or my life controls me?” Jack Canfield – an American author and a motivational speaker once said “you only have control over three things in your life – the thoughts you think, the images you visualize, and the actions your take.” It's sure to be informed that the loss of governance over thoughts, views and actions is the loss of the entire existence. Thus, it's now urging to share deliberations on courses navigated by deluded thoughts and conceptions in the contemporary era to help it abated.
In today's education, a budding high-school junior hops study programs for the most approved. The low seems lower. It feels disappointing to be at the earth's foot. We hear lovely stories; elegant events have gotten our hobs up. The world has evolved. It's the new era. Countless fads and trends keep striking. Is social media – the major mastermind? It fits well in this context. Social media came just around 2000, but it's gone far and wide. Secrets are no more. The lowest stinks smell no shit. Aerial luxuries neither have decency nor innocence. It feels so adamant to keep graduation photo albums confidential. The incubators of all new born babies are in social media. The best meal, the best workplace with computer and alluring office kits installed, the best trips, the best dress and the best, best of every single experience has its best slice served to social media. This is it – the cutting edge trend. People say everything is now at our fingertip and it's very true thanks to computer and telecommunications technology.
In this drift, as noticed, all that is there in social media seems magnificently captivating! It glows on the fluid hearts of youngsters. Any person trying to tell of what doesn't seem right distracts a rainbow. This is sad, yet reality. Bulk of the individuals in social media has no containment. How can it be so easy for one to believe what the eye sees? When it's viewed from a far, the color is blue. When you get closer, it turns green. Even social media fads have had major touches on the lives of teenagers. Who knows how much in millions the developers of "face-app," "tiktoks," and "tap-to-play" and other addictive mobile apps make? Surely too are a countless of it approaching. Well, that isn't ours to worry about; we can't stop it. What‟s at stake is how we accept and deal with it. If a pretty young lady can easily be impelled to play a game that pretends to tell of her future fortunes at platforms like Facebook, how can she resist to dress or act like others whom she watches in social media? Well, it's sure people say 'move with the flow'. Such young persons feel lonely, lost and isolated when they are not part of a big move.
Are people really that happy with their lives as social media continues to tell about them? It's a big "wow" from a far. They take very high-class pictures of themselves and upload to social media. It looks pretty amazing beside and or inside that fancy house and the car and at beautiful places with pretty looking people. So that's it, the people in social media are that happy! I wouldn't be surprised if I had seen tinted facts of existence of some of these people. It isn't that easy to say a mountain is blue when it's entirely covered in green. You can't just say the two are in relationship when a guy walks with a girl. This swing terribly generated highest irritations and discomforts, distracting budding intelligence of tons of people.
The world is coated with enticing stuffs that rattle blooming minds to see what's on the arena than assessing how it was brought to the arena. School leaver forms (SLF) and or job applications have collected retches of enchanted thoughts devised from fantasied hallucinations. Getting employed to as a bank clerk, sales representative and front-desk receptionist or as security guard is a shithole no university or college graduate wants to dig into. Is it because people say, "aim for the stars?" Or because we want to be like everyone else? Do we ever sit down to think how a person built his life and now he's a legend? And to reason out why he enjoys what he enjoys? Or do we just want to have a seat at the big table? Most of us, especially those born around 1990s and forward have accepted the counterfeit and denied reality.
There are people that had their names printed on the world map. Others now regard them as legends. I don't know if it had taken them just two years or a college paper to be who they are? Warren Buffet – an American Business Tycoon once said “Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago." I have read about and watched quite a good number of people who are legends today, yet none of them said things where very easy for them. The Microsoft Co-founder, Bill Gates said he never took a day off in his 20s. Not one! Six months after Gate's statement, Steve Jobs, Apple Co-Founder, confirmed how it feels to be a hardworking person! So, these guys and others in the same basket came a long way to embed the flags of their names on the moon.
What others say and do which you see in social media shouldn't be yours to worry. Grab what's beneficial, put it to use and start living your life. One of the downsides of social media you should know is that the more popular you get with shits, the cheapest you become. It's easy and doesn't take much time. But if your attractiveness is through commitment and hard-work, the most expensive and unbreakable you become! You don't tell your own stories but others do. Never accept to think it took only a few years for a tree to grow into its huge shape. Never be like a foolish dog who throws away the bone on his mouth to go after another who seems to carry a greasy one! It's just a mirror reflection in your mind. Cherish and help grow the seed you have in your palm. Never be distracted by what you see in social media, rather turn those into a motivation. Start from the bottom. Start with scrapes. One life is meant to be lived meaningfully.
Thanks for reading!
May our Good Lord Bless you.
