Not every thought of mine gets shared, some stay with me.
Life is a circus. Often than not
we think we are just a mere spectator who lets the world unfold around us not
realizing we might be the ones they are looking at.
Recently, I wonder how people do
it- how those media influencers do the thing as it is. Sharing to anyone who
cares the tiniest bits of their lives as if life has always been like that. How
ironic, says the person who penned random thoughts on this site as if it’s
always like that, right?
It’s been a couple of weeks since
I slow down with the usage of social media, I only access my accounts during
the days and when I get home I just disconnect myself on the virtual world man
created which people think is a necessity now. Don’t get me wrong, I think
social media is useful, especially with my passion for writing. But sometimes
it’s kinda suffocating.
Just like what I said, I post
random thoughts and realizations. But not everything will get posted, I have at
least 15-word docs that are saved and haven’t been posted partly because I
think it’s not yet finished and mostly because I think it’s not the right time
to post it. Why not publish it, you ask, when on my previous post I wrote that
I want to make a point and make people realize things?
I wanted to engage and get a
response in any way possible.
But why not publish all my
thoughts?
It’s because not everything will
make sense and not everything you think needs to be broadcast.
Most people wanted to share what
they have in mind so that everyone will see that it makes sense, it’s in our
nature to say something but is it really necessary? If I think someone of power
is a racist, misogynistic pig who rules a nation and uses his power to favor
those who favor him, should I keep commenting on every actions that he does?
Once in a very while is enough,
especially when I had enough. I don’t
have to comment on every action that he makes. Why would I waste my time
waiting for his every move and give my two cents when I can use my time being
useful and share good vibes that can brighten someone’s day or help in any way
I can to voice out a topic or cause that myself relates to the most?
There are so many troll comments
and unsolicited opinions thrown from most people, you need not to join the
bandwagon just because it’s what’s in right now.
In a more simple way, I just want
to say that be a Doraemon in a world full of Dora.
In every episode of Dora, she
keeps showing things she has in her bag and is determined to make the audience
use it, it doesn’t feel right when you know that there are things that are
available and haven’t been used. Admit it.
If you are too millennial
for this post let me help you understand my Doraemon reference. Doraemon is a
Japanese cartoon and he is a robotic cat from the 21st century who
lived with Nobita who came from the 19th century if my memory serves me
right. He has this white pouch, I’ll call it magical but I think it’s more of
an advanced technology compartment. It’s like Hermione’s purse that can fit
almost anything!
Anyway, we all know that Doraemon has this bunch of things
that can help Nobita seize the day but what made him different from Dora and
her backpack is that he just picks a specific tool. He doesn’t just give it
away despite knowing how many items he has under his pocket.
While Dora uses all his packed stuff for her adventure,
Doraemon only uses one that can help Nobita at that specific time.
Doraemon let Nobita realize his mistakes after his abusive
use of that object, he doesn’t give him anymore even if he can.
I know that people are naturally curious, adding the fact
that Filipinos are fanatic in nature- even at fault if I may add.
So if you are given a chance to share your two cents, make
it worthwhile. Make it something which will benefit people more.
