Although i had tons of ideas what my next blog is going to be about but I need to take this nice and slow or else I might just run out of ideas..which I seriously doubt.
So my new bog is about one unhappy facebooker (pointing fingers, pointing fingers..Nope not me) Maybe you? OK, for the sake of the argument lets point that finger at me. I recently deactivated my facebook account: Fact. I have been using facebook for about 5 years out of which i have been one active hell of a facebooker. Though a year ago I terminated an old facebook account just because I'm a wimp but then opened up a new one and now I'm so sick of it.
Reason for deactivating my account is not so simple to explain since.... but .... however.... Ok so to keep it simple and straight, the whole idea of leaning over and looking into others life was a bit too much. Plus facebook is all about being self-centered. Its all about ME-ME-ME...I bought this, I got this, I am wearing this, I drive this, I live here, I like this,how I spend my holidays..see its all about ME..and You at the other side of the screen, just look at me and envy me..look at my pictures which I took with my prestigious friends..
Now you see why every other facebooker is one unhappy sucker. Although I wasn't part of the unhappy crowd but I was the other "fitna" (a special description thrown in for those who understand Urdu). I was the self-centered person who always showed off and bragged about how perfect my life is till I realized *what the hell am I doing here*. Checking facebook after ever 4 hours to see if something new has happen...OMG..are you serious, Yes people actually do that.
Now imagine, you see that your best friend went on a hot vacation with her man. You go through the pictures you see the beach (and the b****, in that matter), the boat, the happy couple posing (yukh) and of course the bling bling she wore just because the pictures will be facebookerize. So you see this situation and all the sudden (for no valid reason) you are simply aggravated.. Aggravated because your man is too busy to take time out for a nice vacation for 2.
Although a day before, you were actually thankful for having such a nice husband and today you are mad because he is not good enough. He can't be like your friends husband..you see you see..got the point?
Too all the unhappy Facebookers: Please be happy with your lives, don't compare and if that's something you can't do then facebook is not the right place for you.

ReplyDeleteWhat I like most about facebook is , it bridges the physical distance. You never feel like your friends are far away from u,..that's so nice. isn't it?
