Selfie mania

Author: Daily Times

Sir: Today, the word selfie is very common among the young generation. Nowadays, we have liberty to capture pictures anywhere we want. We usually see people taking selfies at marriages, parties, social gatherings, even at offices and educational institutions. Later, these photographs are shared on social websites.

Studies show that selfies are having adverse psychological effects on people. Those who frequently post their selfies on social websites, become conscious about likes and comments and if they do not receive desired likes, their self-esteem is damaged and self-confidence is shattered. So, it is not a healthy activity.
It is necessary to control selfie addiction. Instead of taking hundreds of selfies, we should enjoy those moments that would never come again. Moreover, we have to understand that beauty does not lie in looks and appearance alone, rather it is imbued in a loving heart and personal character. Therefore, instead of taking selfies, we should enhance our talent, read books and give time to our family and friends so that we can be happy and successful simultaneously.
