Life, Behind the camera


What lies in front of camera? Instagram , Facebook or may be snapchat and many more existing and yet to come.

High pace of growth in technology and more high pace of increasing richness in India(every 3rd person now holds an iphone, am still poor )and so the best quality pictures.

N number of hashtags(please tell me from where on earth people gain the patience to write so many hangtags which is equal to the length of the photograph itself) , and who actually reads them , let me tell you no one because the other person is busy putting their own.

#office#Friday#lovemyfriends and the story behind the camera says something like this:

 #office#lotofwork#dyingtoreachhome#hate #collegue #sittingnexttome  (there are many reasons let me not dig deep into this :D ,forgive me if am wrong).This is one example from my everyday life , it keeps on changing from person to person.

The happy world which we see of people on social media is that so happy and peaceful. If yes , I am so glad and wonder why India is still lying so behind in list of happy countries and who are those youngsters committing suicide out of depression ? were they not aware of something like social media exist and life can be made always happy there. I wish they were.  If no I get answer to my above question. Icing to the cake was when every social media introduced it “stories”  ..wow now happiness can be seen live (we humans are explorers and when it turs to addiction we do not realize it.)

Life in front of camera not only have added to the tourism but a self-pressure to enjoy every weekend and yes #longweekend has also been created. May be the society won’t accept you or you won’t make lot of friends if don’t go out and party hard every friday night and if it’s a long weekend there must be some #weekndgateway made else you might be listed in the book of #boringpeople.I still feel the best days I enjoyed were with my school friends when no such things existed but every memory is still so fresh and the snaps we used to click that time are staying with me because I have their hardcopies) 

Social media started as a part of entertainment but now it has taken over one’s life to post pictures and look so called happy(am not saying you must be crying , but the #choclateshake#coolcafe which was actually #notsogoodintaste#badcafeservice, I never find such hashtags, may be the services and food all over world has improved themselves (one good outcome of social media )

Above all is the most ridiculous thing on YouTube getting viral, I mean I really want to ask that dhinchak pooja after doing such bullshit video what strategy gives her so many views and popularity (I upload a single song and merely 50 likes I get and yes, I sing far better than her). may be something is wrong with our generation or may be am too old fashioned who still love lag ja gale 😐

Most of us are trapped today in this so called happy go lucky world, thanks to hacker who hacked my insta account (though recovered) and I deleted it permanently and trying to control myself for posting my stories on WhatsApp because life is more beautiful behind the camera where emotions exits not just faces.
