facebook, is like comparing your uneventful day, to everyone elses highlight reel. the most horrendous part, is the comparisons that are made, and the feelings that follow. i am guilty of this, i know we are told not to compare yourself to other people because youll never be satisfied, but its in our nature to do this, even if its only once in a while; and thats the hardest part. smiles, and presents, and adventures, and a lives that are so colourful are constantly being splashed across your news feed leads you to believe your own life is maybe a little dull, or that maybe youre missing out on something, and once this feeling catches you, you instantly feel as though parts of your life are not as fulfilling, or that awful self doubt that settles and leaves a bitter taste in your mouth. you begin to ask yourself, why havent I done this, tried that, explored this?... why did I sleep in until 2 PM, when was the last time I embraced nature, why am I eating Michelinas for the 8th time this week? You feel less exciting by the moment. The beginning of this video captured perfectly how i think a lot of people on social media feel. so the next time you see someone posing on a mountain top, or with a 5 star gourmet meal, and a selfie with their romantic partner. remember its not always rainbows and sunshine, most people dont post the ugly.
