Post Responsibly

We all have been taught by our elders to begin our day by following certain morning rituals like listening to bhajans, doing puja @ home / visiting temple, meditating, which certainly bless our whole day.

I am sure we all must be following it till now. But, one more interest has entered into our daily activities, i.e. our favorite pass time – Social Media platforms like Facebook. Thanks to our lavish smart phones, we are 24*7 connected to it.

And why not, it has so much for us all. I too find it very entertaining and it has helped me connect with my good old friends.

But, from the past few weeks, I am disgusted with the stuff people post there.

I mean who would like to see deceased children in blood, knife stabbed in head, lying on road or beach or death bed.

Remember the time, when all we could do after seeing blood was just VOMIT. Now, repeated exposure to such unpleasant images has made us insensitive to some extent.

And, what’s the purpose behind publicizing such photographs? Whose heart is so strong to click such photographs from their camera at the time of event?

Let me be rude here, those who post it online has nothing to do with humanity or sympathy. In fact, they do this only to get tons of likes, thousands of comments and hundreds of shares.

Making such pictures viral shows their evil side and their motive to fill their worthless and aimless life with something, that’s it.

Some people say they are sharing photographs/videos of slaughtered animals for a cause. But, what all you can see except the pain, cruelty, yells and brutality, is only BLOOD, BLOOD and BLOOD.

What cause? If you are really concerned and want to do something to stop it, do it in a better way. Get up of your soft chair, turn off your PC, go out of the comfort of your place and then do something.

And yes, how can I forget what else we came across while scrolling down the news feed. It’s an image of some baby with either a big tumor on head or is dying with cancer, with a message like “This baby has ….blah blah blah…, he will be operated free if this pic gets 1 lac likes”.

What the hell!! Who is going to pay for him with the condition of likes or shares? And the answer is NO ONE. Humanity has nothing to do with number of likes.

By doing such shameful act, ‘they’ are humiliating all those babies/patients who are either suffering at the hospital or dying. Those sufferers don’t need anything other than care, love, treatment and may be, money.

Few pictures, you can easily find (You don’t need to find them, they will come to you) are related to your religion, your God, giving you choices – Like if you care or Ignore if you don’t care. I would say buddy, first check your level of ignorance.

I find it too funny to even react, so I just ignore (Oh, I am scared). God counts our deeds not likes.

My message is for you all, ‘they’ are nothing but some antisocial elements who know your weak points and play with your sentiments.

And whenever you do any activity on any of them, it automatically displays on your friends’ news feed. That’s how things get viral.

The only remedy for such sick people is just IGNORE IGNORE IGNORE.

All Social Media Websites can always act as a boon for us all, if we all take a pledge to Share Responsibly.
