In the contemporary society people tend to craft their images to give the society that good image for themselves (fake people). This technique that focuses on improving a person’s image in the eyes of others is made possible through the use of social networks platforms like instagram, facebook, snapchart and whatsapp. Through these social platforms people are living life they don’t deserve, everyone wants to be pictured as if they got it all.
Through these social networks everyone is outgoing, rich and dresses nicely but here is the truth. The use of filters on snapchart has made every girl to be ’’ Beyonce and Kim Kardashian’’ to the extent of not recognizing them if you meet them. Isaiah 60:22,’’when the time is right I, the Lord, will make it happen.’’ My sister, my brother be real and stop leaving the type of life that other people are living and be you. Other people are blowing away opportunities in life because when a person wants to help and goes on your facebook page and instagram page they even admire the fake life you’re living and see no need to help because all looks perfect only because you are trying to create a fake image for yourself.
Relationships are now taken as commercial business, everyone is advertising everything they do in their relationships with their partners in the name of ‘ love’. Showoff isn’t love showing the whole word that you’re dating the most beautiful girl or the most handsome man it’s not their business, relationship is for two.
This is real love, every relationship will get boring after you’ve been together for years. Love isn’t a feeling it’s a commitment to love every day, physically and emotionally. It’s difficult, it’s not always laughs, smiles and fun, it takes one to go an extra mile better than uploading pictures on your instagram page and they go look for someone else, because ‘the spark is gone’. No, that’s not how it works. You want somebody not to give up on you and love you unconditionally then do the same. Be the change. This isn’t Hollywood, this isn’t the movies. That shit isn’t real.
A man showing anger and persistence to get you back once you try to break it off isn’t proof of love, it’s a knee jerk reaction. A man kissing your ass and making flaccid attempts to be nicer for two weeks isn’t proof that he is trying, its proof that he knows how to defuse your mind long enough to hook you once again. A lot of you girls don’t know what it’s like to be loved by a real man but you get head over heels after you see your post on social networks, that shit isn’t real. You know lust, you know joy, you know passion and you know fear of abandonment. You have put all your faith in this promise that Prince charming will come for all women, but now that you’re getting older you realize that you’ve never truly been loved but posted as a result of showing you off due to good looking and a beautiful body and that’s not love but being advertised. Stop chasing your idea of what love should be and recognize what love is. Love isn’t promising to act right after he fucks up, love is him acting right from the start so he won’t fuck it up, love isn’t telling a grown man to change, love is a grown man changing on his own because he can’t imagine life without you.
