why I don't post this 🤍
Recently I have found myself not posting much on my social media accounts. When I was in High School I would post literally everyday about something and it got to the point where everyone knew all my movements of the day. When I finished College I started appreciating small moments without blasting it on social media. Slowly I stopped posting about my everyday life and began living in the moment. That isn’t to say I don’t post anymore. Sometimes I’ll post a quick recap post or about something that I truly want to share with family and friends.
I love the feeling of just taking pictures and leaving them in my camera roll so that I can go back and relive those moments by myself. It’s private and it’s honestly amazing. Not everyone needs to know what ’s going on in my life and I’m completely okay with going MIA for a while 😊
In today's digital age, the necessity to share every moment on social media can often overshadow the significance of privacy and personal experience. The trend of curating perfectly crafted feeds can lead to burnout or a feeling of disconnection from our actual lives. More individuals are finding solace in the act of living in the moment, which allows them to treasure experiences without the public eye. This article resonates with those who may feel overwhelmed by the pressure to constantly update their social statuses or share every detail of their lives. Many people now opt to keep cherished memories tucked away in their camera rolls, enjoying the private satisfaction they provide. Additionally, taking a break or going 'MIA' can be liberating, creating space for self-reflection and reducing stresses associated with online notifications. Finding balance in how we use social media is crucial for mental well-being, and it's perfectly acceptable to prioritize personal time over public display.
