In this era of social media, we are forgetting the real meaning of the word "society" or Social.

We are more into social media instead of being social in real life. Of course, social media is very important nowadays, that's why I am sharing this post on Instagram and Linked In. But when we meet with our family or friends or someone else in real life then we have to give time to them instead of using a cell phone at that time. As we all know that nowadays we are habituated with social media platforms. When we gather for any group or family meeting or party, many of us are using cell phones just for the sake of social media. Most of the time we are doing nothing but just scrolling up and down. This habit keeps pushing us away from the real society.

Cell phone and Social Media platforms are also affecting on work-life balance. Most of the young employees are using mobile phones at work more than work they do. Therefore, they cannot fully concentrate on their work. Also, those who prefer using less phone at workplace are more prone to using phone at their home instead of spending time with their family. Concentrate on your work at the workplace and concentrate on your relationship when you are with your family or friends. Use social media when you have break-time, when you are free, when you need to read or search something online, when you upload your blog etc. It will surely help to improve your concentration level. Social media provides us an excessive and unnecessary information while we are using such platforms without having any purpose or any motive. Such people start comparing themselves to use it to others in terms of standard of living, clothes they wear, phone they use, car they drive and the life they live. Then, these people start copying others. Even though they have a small budget they are purchasing such things on installments and over a period of time it will turn into financial stress. Let's come to the topic again, I personally think that feelings, emotions, love, care, happiness, joy and sorrow is all we can see in someone's eyes more than on a mobile screen. Always remember Society is made by people, Values and Culture. Social media platforms are only for sharing information. So, when you gather to discuss, to celebrate, to inform, please keep your cellphone in your pocket. Diwali is coming soon, I urge you to try to give your precious time to your family, relatives and friends. You will feel the real meaning of being social and society.
