Everyone seems to have it all under control on social media. They all look happy, rich and contented in their pictures with a smooth and acne-free face?.
Most times we compare our lives, relationships, successes with all the “Fleeky” pictures we see. The truth of the matter is people actually upload pictures they want you to see. They don’t show you when they are down, disappointed, sad or broke. They only show you their high and happy moments.
They don’t show you when they’re eating directly from the pot or when they’re eating leftover food. You only get to see a freshly and nicely prepared jollof rice with sexy slices of plantain and Chicken.
They don’t show you when they’re quarreling with their spouses or when they’re heartbroken. You only get to see them doing lovey-dovey things on social media.
Everyone has a weakness they are battling with but they won’t show you. Do not be deceived either should you use this medium or any other as a yardstick for your life. Stop wishing to be like anyone you see here, some of us are here for the “fame” and “likes” and they care less.
PS: My weakness has always been Eba and Egusi soup?… I bet you didn’t know.
Truer words have never been spoken about social media. It is a joke and it has brought out the narcissism in people sad to say. People are lost, hurting and looking for love in everything and everybody but God. I know because I was once lost and confused. But God! Thank you for writing this post. Btw, I really like the new look blog. God bless you beautiful lady!
