Food for thought:
If no one posts up a picture of an event on some kind of social media, does that mean it never happened at all?

This came to mind lately, as I was feeling all left out while others seemed to have all the fun (on facebook and instagram particularly).

How is it that we may be reduced to such an endless (and sometimes destructive) cycle of checking and jealousy? I guess we humans feel the need for approval and social media is just one way for us to do that.

It is quite scary (but refreshing) to just stop and think: "Wait, do I really need to post this up? Am I just doing it for likes/shares?"

If you can sorta relate to what I am talking about, maybe it would be a good idea to just NOT post something up every now and then. Just to test your own self-control.
