Social Media: The Cancer of Our Day

Social media is the cancer of our day.

It rots the bones, steals the soul,

kills creativity, and replaces imagination

with a worship of falsehood.

There’s nothing real about the “real” it sells.

It is the epidemic of reality—

a mirage dressed as authenticity.

You think you’re seeing truth,

but it’s a curated fraction—

and a fraction of the truth is a whole lie.

We compare our messy, beautiful lives

to the polished fragments of others,

and we spiral.

Downward.

Desperate.

Discontent.

If you fall prey to the religion of social media,

you will be sucked into a false reality—

one that numbs the soul

and leaves you thirsty,

drinking salt water

and wondering why you’re still dehydrated.
