Facebook is not just limited to uploading photos, putting up status and stalking people. It has a lot more to offer. It not only helps us to connect with our long lost friends and relatives, but also teaches us life-hacks to have a balanced life.
Are you wondering how? Read on to know all the life lessons Facebook teaches us, that we seldom notice.
1. What you see is not always the truth
People only show you what they want you to see
2. You have the liberty to comment on anyone’s status, but don’t forget that also lets people see what your views are
People notice your every move closely.
3. There is no unlike button in life, nor on Facebook
Sometimes even if you want to express what you feel, you can’t. That’s the ugly truth of life.
4. People only let you see the positive side of their life, so you should not judge them based on one part of their story
Nobody likes to be pitied. Also, people often love to be the talk of the town and make others jealous. It all depends on how you take things.
5. Anything you say will get both negative and positive response to it
You have to be ready for it. With the good comes the bad.
6. You don’t completely lose the person after your breakup. They stay in your memories and recently searched history
Ways of missing and stalking someone has changed, but it is still very much a part of everyone’s life.
7. You will always have an option of keeping things private and public. You should learn to keep certain things private so that you’re not bothered by the outside world
The more public you make the more opinions people will have about you. You can’t let everyone be a part of everything that’s happening in your life.
8. It doesn’t matter what you’re going through, the show goes on. People will post videos, photos, and voice their opinions time and again
In the end, it is all about moving ahead with life.
9. You can’t mess around with someone’s private life, if you do then you will be banned
It is important to draw your lines, you should know how personal you can get.
10. When you grow old, all that you’re left with is photos and good memories
People might judge you for putting up dozens of photos right now, but when you grow old these photos will make you laugh the most.
11. The world is big and if you keep an open mind you will meet a lot of interesting people daily
People from interesting groups, communities, and pages will break all the stereotypes you have about the world.
12. Opportunities are in abundance, but you have to be on the right page at the right time
Opportunities don’t knock twice, but sometimes you do stumble upon the same page twice. So keep your eyes open.
It is all about how you perceive things. Next time your parents ask you to use less of Facebook, just tell them how it’s teaching you important life lessons. 😉
