Social media - A Virtual Reality

Belonging from a rich background a teenager named Aarushi lived in a huge mansion but her parents were always busy in their business and their professional life. So they hardly had time for her. She was a very joyful person in front of the world but in actual she always felt alone in the crowd. She didn't had any friends, actually, true friends. The friends she had were because she was rich and had a luxurious background. She had many servants in her house but she always loved to do everything by her own. That was the best part of her attitude as a human. She was a polite and innocent person. She always respected everyone, even her servants. She was caring as well. One of her servants once needed help and money for his daughter's surgery. So, she end up taking responsibility of her surgery and she cared and looked after her till she was discharged.

She had everything that she needed but only one thing that she never got was time. Time is such a precious thing that we can never buy but can always value and utilize it appropriately. Here her parents hardly had time for her. So whatever she wanted to tell or share to her parents never reached to their ears. That was the drawback and she started spending her most of the time on social media platforms. Initially she just opened accounts but as time passed she became addicted to them. She started sharing her pictures and videos. Then further she started sharing her day. Then she started sharing each and every moment of her life. Her followers, likes, comments started increasing day by day. The people whom she didn't know also started following her. She soon had a huge fan following on social media. So she started sharing more and more content. Her all time just passed away doing these things all day.

One day, She was just randomly checking her comments section. Firstly, she was happy after reading few comments but gradually her happiness turned out into sadness and depression. In her comments section, she received negative comments and responses that depressed her very deeply. She was a very young and innocent person. She was not used to these things. Her mind and thoughts were completely surrounded by those negative comments. Soon she ended deleting her account and decided to never get addicted to these things again. 

Initially she was upset by those comments but this was not the reason that she wasn't strong enough to bear those comments instead as time passed she realized one thing that made her took that decision. That was a realization that changed her completely.

The realization was that she really didn't matter for them ie. Her followers. They followed her because of her posts and videos that she uploaded. It was just a source of entertainment for them. Then "why would l matter people's words for whom l really don't matter?", she thought that in her mind. The people for whom she actually matters and would always matter till her last breath was her parents. Soon she came up with a thoughtful idea. That if her parents can't spend time with her she would help other people, children who need time attention care and love affection. She started working part time in NGOs and visited orphanages and old age homes. By her money she raised donations and help in improving many people's lives. With that thought she even involved her parents to invest in many of these NGOs and motivated them to do as much as they could. In this way, her parents also started spending time with her and in her activities as well. Her parents later on realized that the money they earn can't buy time that their daughter needed always in her life. So, then her parents decided to spend time together as much as they could.

Days past and soon Aarushi completed her graduation, she took over her parents business and also became a social activist. Her life changed completely and she never imagined her life like that. Her decision in the past brought her to an improved and better present and even future. From the day when she took her decision to the day where she is today, she never felt excluded and even she never made others feel like that in her company. She was no more alone in the crowd instead now she was a part of it. She even had a lot of social media platforms where she shared her actions she took for people as a social worker. She also inspired people and reached to a large audience where she motivated them to invest their time in improving themselves and help others to improve as well instead of commenting on other's lives . She used social media but now her actions were not just source of entertainment but as well as inspiration and motivation.

See guys, her past experiences were not at all good, but she took it positively and she threw away the thoughts of negatives even if she had to face it. She didn't allowed herself to be depressed and she came up with a such a great plan of life. If we also start thinking like her l am quite sure that the attempts of suicides due such things may decrease and we would improve ourselves and would make our lives better. Because complaining or ending life without any second thought is not the solution of problems in our lives.
