Mind you!

In the age of social media, people are trying every trick that will make them viral sensations for a few minutes. Actors, singers, musicians, sportsperson and common people are all trying to create content which will fetch them more and more ‘likes.’

In pursuit of fetching ‘likes,’ these people at times cross boundaries and do acts which look really bad or do not go with them at all and end up making a mockery of themselves.

We should always remember that we are born with distinct qualities. Everybody can’t do everything. A singer can’t dance, a dancer can’t sing, a sportsperson can’t do mimicry.

This principle applies to all. There is no harm in creating content to entertain viewers, but we should see what we are capable of. We should keep in mind our image too. We can’t post anything. We should think twice before posting.  Social media is a terrific tool that can be used in a very sincere way.
