Facebook: A new avenue to brag?


Its kinda amusing when I go through the posts on my notifications list these days. While some use the network as a means to share their experiences in the area of their expertise or to catch-up with their contacts, most were merely bragging (consciously or unconsciously) about their wealth, their personal lives or merely ranting much ado abt nothing!

Without realising the psychological effects that the latter comments have on our minds, we become bitter individuals who envy others because of what they possess or could do but not us. We become a society who is obssessed about other peoples' lives.

I, for one, am trying not to visit my Facebook as often as I used to. Sometimes, the lesser you know, the better it is. And the lesser you reveal, the more mysterious you are to others. I guess that is a good new year resolution to begin with ;)
