This thing called social media!

Do you know that social media can make one happy and crazy as well?

So many people now see social media as the air that they breath and can’t do without. Its funny at the same time a reality. Me particularly, I don’t think I can survive without Internet on my device. Yeah, it’s that serious. As a matter of fact, I know of someone who cannot visit the toilet without going along with the phone, just to check through Instagram (social media)

At its basis, social media is a website or an application that enables users to create and share content or do participate in social networking which is a form of communication. E.g., Facebook, twitter, Instagram, WhatsApp, snapchat.  I studied different statistics concerning social media and I discovered that it has penetrated to more than half of the world's population as at 2018.

However, the rate at which social media usage is increasing tremendously, has affected and still affecting many lives  and the society as a whole, positively and negatively .

Now the question is, how has it affected or affecting your life?

Many of us, can spend all day on social media achieving nothing while some uses it as a way of increasing wealth. It's rather advisable to spend your time wisely in achieving greater result on social media. Do you know that some people would even go on to monitor other fellows' achievements, bully, compare status, instead of focusing on how they could increase in themselves.

Statistics has shown that 90% of people spend time on Facebook, 60% on twitter, 51% on Instagram while 50% on snapchat. In as much as social media has positive facet, it also has its negative sides. 

This thing called social media has made people to go stealing cos the wanna meet up with standard/friends, it has broken many homes/marriages and even relationships,  has made some depressed due to what they see or read, so many damages has it done to the society! However, today lets focus on the positive sides of social media. Only of we could re-structure our mind, we would enjoy the benefits of social media.
