Social Media Reflections - Jayashree
Social Media can be very advantageous in a superfluous amount of ways. For example, my friend posted Malala's story on facebook. It inspired me to do something for the community. Even . For example, if your best friend moves to a different country, you can continue to keep in touch using social media, such as Skype. You can catch up with other people and their lives by chatting or texting with them. You could also get an exposure to different topics on facebook or twitter.
In the present day, Social Media has a huge impact on us, and our lives. Social Media is used as a way for people to keep in touch with each other, even when they cannot meet in person. People can also socialize with their friends, and catch up on current events in each other's lives.

Though Social Media can very helpful in many ways, there are also some negatives to it as well. Many people get so engrossed in Social Media, they do not realize how much time they spend on it. Many teenagers abuse their right to use social media and post inappropriate photos or text. Social media also decreases face to face connection and emotionally sharing ones feelings. Some teens and adults rely completely on their phones or electronic devices to convey their messages, so this decreases the need for face to face conversation. Also, when someone texts or posts, you do not know their emotional response, so sometimes, this can lead to misunderstanding between friends.
I am happy that I do not have a social media account because there are many risks and dangers online. For example, someone could hack your account and gain access to all your personal information. My parents and I feel it is better for me not to have a social media account at such a young age.
If I did have a social media account, then I would create a thoughtful, intelligent, and humorous image. I like to be thoughtful and post items which appeal to me, at the same time remain lighthearted by not stressing on a topic too much. For example, I enjoy classical Indian dance, or Bharatanatyam. So, I might post an inspiring story about the story of a famous dancer!
I think that Social Media is a great tool for communocatin , however they have to remain cognizant of the risks and dangers as well!
