“Every power is yours so think wisely because every click that you do can affect someone’s life whether intentional or not.”

We live in a fully technological world that moves faster into changes and each one of us must be able to adapt. With the advancement of technology social media came to the peak where communication was done through internet. Those sites do give us lot of help but at the same time it contributes into Satanic acts that transform the youth into a spoiled one. Social media is good as much as you use it in a positive way but when you start abusing it, this may turn into your greatest enemy. Social networking sites such Facebook, IG, and Twitter gives us opportunity to deal with our friend and family, see their photos and even their updated posts. But today there exist the hackers, bulliers and fake accounts and users that hide as our friends.

For us Facebook and other sites can be addicting to those people who doesn’t have self -control because you should always think that “You use Facebook and not Facebook use you.” Social media let us develop the different aspect of our life: physical, emotional, social, mental and spiritual. Physically through social media we can easily cope up with the fashion trends everywhere. Emotionally we can express our thoughts and ideas through posts. Socially we learn to be sociable even with those who are not related to us. Mentally, there are some sites that offer us to try answering their drills and activities. And most important is spiritually we grow. If all of this is in you then I salute you for successfully overcomed the dangers of social media.

With every sites that we used, we should know how to handle it wisely. We should know its uses, features, dangers and limitations as well. And the thing that we want to say is social media can either be good or bad depending on you the user. Every power is yours so think wisely because every click that you do can affect someone’s life whether intentional or not.
