There is overflowing of information on Social Media. They are free to grab, to repost and to be set as guidelines of life. As we all know, posting of any kind of information can’t be controlled on social media (unless it was ordered by the government) as it was created as a tool in expressing different thoughts and opinions coming from every mindset of society. These platforms can give both harmful and useful side effects towards its users. Right now, there’s a lot of information that can be seen on social media that gives us fear, anger, hatred and other negative impacts on our daily lives based on every post and news we see today. Wondering if social media can still be used to bring positivity in life by providing inspiring contents that will help us to bring Peace, Love and Enrichment of our souls.
Social Media is not made to make us feel that everything around us is not right. Yes, news and posts nowadays are extremely exhausting to read though there are still good contents that bring positivity to all aspects of humanity. Facebook pages like Eleanor Brownn with 2 Ns, Pastora Mel, Velden Lim and Lessons Taught By Life provide healthy and positive thoughts in life that will surely encourage our mind and soul to act what is right in life when everything goes wrong. Others are creating Huddles on Flashat wherein counselling and word of encouragement can be provided real time for support groups. Nick Vujicic and Vivek Bindra are two of the best known motivational speakers on YouTube. There are also campaigns and photos on Twitter and Instagram that help to spread #peace, #love and act of #kindness using social media. And lastly, there is to spread happiness and positivity by creating interactive videos on the app TikTok.
Since then, Social Media have been a great part of our lives. It helps us to be informed and updated in every matter in this world. It can bring negativity or positivity depending on the contents that we are sharing to influence and change one’s mindset. In the end, it is a great tool to be used to make someone feel that there is still hope in everything.
