Ray's Confessions: Where's My Happiness?📱: Don't be slaved by technologies

Hey, Guys! I want to share my opinion about nowadays influences, that makes people really forget where their body is, when they forget blessings they may have, feel ungrateful for their happiness. Yup, it's called social media, where people can share their moment to everyone to this every particular world. It such a good thing for us because it let you know what your friends are doing, or maybe their current feelings and where they've been last summer. You may know their existence without asking them in person. Or, people share their creativity, their ideas, and also their skills which made us self improved to be a better person by making them our inspiration. But, the big point i want to discuss in this topic is, everybody is really getting obsessed with it.

Why i said that they're getting obsessed? Because I've seen many people are too busy with their virtual world until they forget their actually real world, where they body belonged. For example, when you're having your dinner with your friends and foods already served, there must be some persons asked you not to eat the food, just for a minute so they can take pictures and post it on Instagram with Instafood hash tag, after that you still can't eat the food because they need to take selfies with their table or do a Boomerang-Thing to be posted on Instagram Stories. A friend of mine says, it's really impolite to putting out phone in front of the served food, and I agree with her statement.

Well, I'm not such a fake person because i admit that i do the second point every time i hang around with my friends. Just for showing that i'm really enjoying my quality time with them. As we can conclude that mostly people share their happy moments on social media so the world may know that you are being happy more than no one. But, let's see on the other side, a friend that feeling so lonely, tired, stressed out with their problems, depressed by their deadline tasks, we can see that this friend are totally not in a good mood. Then, he/she open up their social media and sees his friends are really enjoying their good life without him.

Then the devil said "Look! They're having fun without you, while you're in desperate situation. Why didn't he invite you out? He's such a fake friend." and he's getting more depressed than before and may causing self cutting, or maybe ending their life. Okay it was the worst case of all. But we don't really know what is on our sad friend mind, do we? In another story, there was a person who spent his holiday on his grandma's house in downtown, he felt happy with it, he had quality time with his family. Suddenly he saw some posts of his friends had a vacation trip to another country or something else better than his holiday activity. It might push him down because he thought his vacation were sucks, making him ungrateful, being envy. To be honest, sometimes I've been in this situation, feeling ungrateful, getting jealous with people while I'm not in a mood, i bet you guys have been in the same thing just like me. Lol.

But, the most damn thing about social media is not being yourself so you can social climb your virtual world's account and you may have tons of digital likes, comments, also a bunch of followers. For example, a guy lay down on a bunch of sand on the roadside, takes selfies, share the pictures, and confess' that he's on a beach vacation. Or, a girl who wore make up, dressed up beautifully on Friday Night, then took mirror selfies, posted it with "FriDate" caption. Seconds after that she took off her dress and removed their make up then went back to their room to continue their web series episode. Dude, it such a pathetic thing.

Social media has many impact for the users, depending on them by how they use and manage their virtual world. Many advantages we can take from social media such as knowing our friend news update, keep in touch with friends who studies on another city or country maybe. But these doesn't make social media is really good for us, there's many lack of social media that may harm users if they don't use social media wisely. For me, use the social media as less as possible, enjoy the real world, quality time, put my phone in my pocket as long as you have your time with your bests. Although it was easy to do, but i tried as hard as i could.
