How The Share Button created Facebook Annoying
Facebook used to be plenty less cluttered.
At least, that was before the invention of the "share" button.
As a results of that one little link currently underneath each post, my wall has become nothing more than a confusing mess of useless clichés and talking animal posters.
How are we, as intelligent folks, to take care of this injustice? we build fun of them, of course!
Case in point, one particular Facebook poster I saw today said this:
"Some folks are available into your life as Blessings!! Others come in your life AS LESSONS!"
On the surface, this sounds perfectly acceptable. That is, if you suspect the Universe somehow created you decide some of the morons you've got had relationships with as a result of you required to find out one thing. Please perceive that, if this can be case, you are doing not have free will.
And hopefully you also realize that almost all "lessons" folks suppose they learn are continually self-serving. If our partner was unfaithful, nobody says it had been meant to be so they could learn to be forgiving. It would, instead, be to teach you to be less gullible, more careful, or one thing like that.
The problem with blessings and lessons is you never apprehend that class any particular experience falls into. It's primarily up to your interpretation. It all depends on how you examine it.
The fact that the Universe created you become involved with an abusive spouse (and it DID make you if you suspect in this concept) suggests that it had been for a decent reason.
Really? obtaining smacked around by some cowardly moron whose mommy didn't hug him as a child has meaning? i know folks would really like to suppose it will. It makes us feel far better concerning the terrible things that happen to us.
What is the purpose of learning these lessons anyway? you are solely on this Earth for a short period of time. is this about to help you in the afterlife?
That's simply it! you do not apprehend that is why this particular saying is thus stoopid.
These little maxims solely very serve one purpose. they help us gloss over the bad things that happen to us by letting us pretend there's some higher purpose we don't perceive.
That's all very poetic, however unfortunately cannot be proven.
I think we'd like to prevent boiling our lives down into little Facebook posters. Doing thus simply causes you to a target for being created fun of.
