Social Media World Interference
>> Thursday, March 4, 2010
Have you ever thought about how much the internet "World" (Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, Games, etc.) interferes with your life? Not many do, because it has become a part of our every day life, embedded in our minds even. Isn't it amazing how we get so consumed in media? Kind of like I am now. According to what I heard this morning on the radio, 20 percent of divorce factors have a reference back to Facebook. Wow! That is a huge percentage. Life now revolves around the internet or more tech savvy term, "social networking world." There are several out there in the world that uses the internet to reach out to people on the other side of the world; other countries. All in all, it is a way of keeping in contact with friends and families that you don't see or speak to all the time or an opportunity to make new friends. Now, this is where the divorce factors come into play. What is too much? Where do you draw the line and stop contacting people for the wrong reasons? Who are friends? Some may argue, what are the wrong reasons? Simple. Morals and standards. If you are questioning yourself then you're probably crossing your own lines. What I don't understand is, why would someone belittle himself/herself to such acts? You became married because you love that one certain person. Why mess up that connection?
Media world has alot to blame for how we look at life, ourself, others, etc...everything is misconstrued. My point in the matter is, why do we let others (media-networking, news, radio, television, celebraties) control our life? Tell me what do you think about this? Give me your opinion about the social media world.

That is an interesting point. Though I believe you are either honest or your not. I dont think Social Networking is turning people into monsters, but rather an easier way to cheat and get caught.
That where you should know yourself better and not cross the line.
