Fall short when your great uncle died?

[SaifulIslam01]

Do you ever wonder why a person like Carrie Fisher can bring about a public mourning from millions of Facebook users, while tens of thousands of people day each and every day die into obscurity?

Did you shed a tear for Princess Leia or David Bowe.

Have you ever contemplated the fact that these celebrities we all worship have no bearing on our reality, and perhaps serve as a distraction away from the people in our lives?

The greatest illusion is that we believe the problem is telegram number list somewhere out there rather than within ourselves.

The greatest tragedy is that we feel so attached to stars yet so detached from our own blood.

Our daily visits to the intellectual cyber ghetto known as “Facebook” have stolen precious moments from us. Moments of temporary amusement, mindless videos of rapping canines and bacon-wrapped pizza cheeseburgers. Scraps of mental junk food and bits of meaningless information we use to fill the emptiness, the awkwardness, the moments of boredom in everyday life. The moments we will never get back.

Moving forward in 2017, I propose we surf less on Facebook and stick our faces in more books. May we spend less time mourning celebrities and more time celebrating the lives around us. And that we focus less on the problems around us and more on the solutions within ourselves.
