"Youth and A strong social media" by Joshana Baidya

Just take out your mobile phone and shot out with a right angle and right place with perfect filter, edit, witty caption and post it to your social media either Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, .....and on. An hour later.... Just 20 likes! What the hell? Whatever, I'm deleting it.

We youth are responsible and we all have been there. Sharing our feelings and emotions to the world. It became our culture. A question may arise- Why we do so? Probably, because we scroll all those pictures and statuses wanting and waiting to live better lives than others. We combat our feelings with photos, statuses and loneliness with LIKES. All those things we shares are of the world. They are not real. Even they are not happy with their life, they updated their statuses like; feeling happy, joyful, love, refresh...and so on. They are creating a fake world.

Wants to bring a joyful life every day! We watched movies and listened to music. Feel that songs and movies are great. Oh! Look at that Harry styles. How about Taylor? They are the wizard. We wished to be like these celebrities or any other talented person. Influenced by their personalities. If we can't do anything, we feel ourselves as an unloved, lonely, junk, jerk, imperfect.... But we never think, who we are? Why we are here? And what are our purpose? We must ask these questions because we all are created in on purpose and for a purpose.

Here in Jeremiah 31: 3, God has told us, "I've loved you with an everlasting love". We don't have to work to be LIKED when we are already LOVED. God promises us in Matthew 28:20, "I'm with you always even to the end of the age". Jesus is the only one who promises fullness of life and gives it. We just need to put our faith in him and obey his commandments. In Jeremiah 29:11, God has promised us to give hope and future. We can see the blessing and miracle from him as in Samuel 17:45-50, how a shepherd become a king, 2chronicles1:11-12, how a small king became the wisest and the richest man, in Matthews14:29, how a fisherman was able to walked on the water and lead a church movement. Eventually, Happiness isn't defined by what you do, but by whom do. So, God is in us. That's what makes us SATISFIED. Isn’t this an EXCITING news?
