It’s a fake, fake, world we live in {superficial}

Say this out loud: “IMAGE.” That is what today’s NJroute22.com VLOG is about.

That seems to be what everyone strives to achieve.

It’s always been a thing – regardless of the apparatus and circumstances around us.

But the DIGITAL world makes this “image” much worse.

In our online travels – you’ll see that almost everyone has a profile image. It’s an image of themselves that they use to represent them. Like a cover photo.

Instagram is particularly the worst of the bunch – as many folks post hundreds of photos of themselves. A non-stop “look at me” experience. That is why we’ve completely removed ourselves from that platform. Total waste of time.

And many if not most times – you can see that nearly everyone these days presents themselves as celebrities in their own world. They strive to be cool, fit, active, or sexy. Most of the time those are images they want – or feel best about – not let’s say, “an average day in the life.”

It appears that almost all people have a higher image of themselves mentally than deserved. A grandiose image.

It’s a terrible thing these online platforms have created with society.

A competition of superficial impressions.

I guess these days not many people can make determinations on their own. They just need to sum it up in the time it takes to look at one small photo.
