Embracing Social Media

Nowadays social media is a huge thing that it became essential already. A lot of people are so in to it that they became more attached and thus spend most of their time online. For that matter, they were already addicted without even realizing they were.

The fact that the social media offers many kinds of exciting opportunities, games, application, entertainment, knowledge and all captivated the interest of the people. Actually, by the help of social media people are able to get a job, hire for a job, communicate to their loved ones easily, and meet new friends and a lot more. It even gives everyone the opportunity to become popular in their chosen field or career. Apparently, positive things do come with negatives for we all know that social media has become the playground of crimes and wrong doings where minors are more concerned with of which is so distressing. Children must be guided accordingly knowing their vulnerability. We need to let the young ones understand that engaging in social network such as FACEBOOK, TWITTER, YOUTUBE (which happen to be most popular amongst teens and adults at present) etc. exposes themselves in public and that gives almost everyone specially those “strangers” the right to stalk, bully and even enter their private lives easily by just merely sharing information or simple exchange in communication. Being Careless at times threatens our safety much if we aren’t thinking of the consequences.  I mean – you will not be in danger if you’ll not put yourself in to it. We must be responsible of our actions and doings.  We are living in this world wherein technology offers a lot that we sometimes mishandle its output, we must know our limitation. It lessens the risk.

As we embrace the positive impact of social media we also welcome the threat it may bring. Either social media will work or break things out. It’s not always a win win situation, let’s be aware of that.
