It's ok not to update social media status!!!

One task for you'!! Re-memorize your last trips out of the country or  any other tourist place and try to find out the place where you haven't capture the selfie and haven't done facebook check-in or haven't updated your status? Its very difficult to find out right? This has become part of our daily life or routine.

• We feel that our trips are incomplete without social media check-ins, updates, selfies but that's not the case always.  

• why Its ok not to update your status? When we go out for a trip or we are having any life event,  instead of enjoying the trip, instead of spending good time with family, instead of feeling the nature and instead of living the moment we are busy clicking selfies and waste time in updating status, check-ins.

• I feel that We are in race of updating the fb / insta /twitter status and everyone thinks that i want to be winner of the race!! but unfortunately you will be a looser.

• why you might be looser in the race of updating status? while spending time with your phone on social media you have lost the present and pleasant  moments that we should spend with family or your loved ones. so you are a looser here.
• You may risk your life if you are at dangerous place. According to the research there are thousands of people die because of selfies at dangerous places. Major reason for their death was drowning, being hit by a train or car, or falling from a great height. Selfies become "killfies" for them. So you might loose your life too while taking a selfie.

Social Media statuses are one way to show-off

• Now it has become trend that people's happiness, success is measured by their social media updates. People update their status just to show their financial status, social status.
• Please remember those statuses are just on virtual platform, Reality can be different than what is being shared with you.

Social Media Statuses for expressing sadness:

Lot of people shares their news of relative's demises on social media  which is ok but you will see thousand of "like" on those statuses. I can't understand what to "like" in this sad news. This is really tragic and depressing.

Have some privacy in your life..

• Please have some privacy in your life... Expressing your feelings is good thing when you are too happy but we should not show it every time..

Social Media statuses are Major Reason for depression 

• Social media statuses creates depression / inferiority complex among people just because they cant afford those trips or events.
• Social media statuses encourages you to earn more money when you are not capable of what your friend has just shared, and it will create pressure / stress in your mind to earn more money. as stress level increases your mental health, physical health and it can affect your relationship and this leads to depression.
• According to the research thousand of people started feeling depressed / jealous  when they see their friend's statuses. Those people start feeling insecure, start fighting with their spouse regarding these and expecting more from them.

Make a Habit to minimize use of mobile when you are on trip:

• So next time when you go out for a trip with your loved once, switch off your phone and try to live the moment, you will have inner piece when you have unforgettable and happy moments... 
• Just live that moment because don't know how long the life is... If you can't resist yourself updating your status tell yourself  "its ok not to update status every-time"
• Please try this in your next Trip  and just share me your experience here in comments. It will be very interesting to know.

Conclusion:

• I am not saying that you shouldn't click photos/selfies or update statuses when you are on a trip. but those things must be secondary. First thing should be live the moment, First Try to feel the beauty of nature. Try to capture those beautiful moments in your eyes try to enjoy it! Once you are done with all these things and If you have some time left than you can capture your trip moments to your camera.
