They say - "Aap social kaam karne ke baad pics upload karte ho, aap fake ho"
When you successfully perform a skit on teacher's day, you post pictures. Maybe your parents and friends are really proud of you. People are inspired and want to be in theatre group themselves now.
When you visit a beach in goa, you post pictures. People are "J" and they plan their trips too inspired by your sizzling hot, and fun pictures.
Infact facebook is a platform that has inspired people from all age-groups to long for something, get up and do, be more proactive and make a mark
Then why is it that, we are frowned upon on posting pictures of some social work that we do for our own happiness (same as in a skit), in which our family and friends will be proud too, and possibly we might get people inspired to do the same.
Why is it compulsory to act 'extra-mature' and 'over-saintly' and 'over-humble' and 'extra-serious' when doing some social work. Does it not defeat the whole purpose. I mean i think people do it to connect more within themselves and experience the real joy, otherwise what is the meaning of all this studying and striving, and that that we get a big package, and then struggle to decide where to spend it, if we are not satisfied with us and with life. As i once read somewhere - "Money is what keeps our physical bodies alive, but songs, poems, love, relationships are the entities that gives us a purpose to live life"
Ofcourse there is a place and time for everything. One cannot start clicking selfies in a camp where people are dying, but what is wrong with places like an orphanage or other places we visit.
I read a FB post which went something like "life is short, so get into relationships, have breakups, feel the pain and click a lot of selfies, to weave a beautiful string of memories, wherever you are"
Keep inspiring people, keep posting
