Everything in this world bombards us day after day with content that is created hour after hour and keeps us distant and disconnected from reality.
Reels that we watch over and over again maybe to block certain parts of our thoughts that hurt us and we avoid thinking, but… don’t many of those videos or posts continually bring us more and more ideas that in the end increase the problem in those thoughts we are trying to avoid?
Maybe one had certain ideas about a certain topic and suddenly someone comes to put another point of view in our head, and of course it is not wrong because we must be open to different points of view…. the problem comes when hearing someone “popular” say it makes many people hear those words as a truth, a truth that enters those heads and allows a manipulation of their thoughts causing more mental conflicts that take them away from their own identity.
People giving advice on love, life, cooking and a myriad of topics which are often no longer questioned and not analyzed that all content creators just live on clicks, views and likes, and that’s why those contents are not really thought to do good in the minds of people, it is simply to generate a monetary benefit for the one who generates it. Of course, as in everything there are exceptions, but let’s face it, there are only a few.
And well thanks to that now we have millions of people in the world without knowing who they are or who they are, what to think and what not to think, millions of people without a true identity … that at the end of the day that identity is what defines who and what we are.
We always have to remember…the internet is that virtual world where what people expose the least is their reality.
