The Innovation of Loneliness.
Could this world of social media and our ever expanding ‘friend’ circles may actually be making us more lonely? Could it be that being in control of the image we project of ourselves to others online, we aren’t being true to ourselves, thus making us feel more alone?
With the ability to edit, re-think and delete what we have said or posted, we craft our own image, paragraphs of text reformed and photos depicting only what we want people to see. We gather online friends like stamps and quantity has overtaken quality, with face to face interaction being minimized year by year. Could it be we are sacrificing conversation for connection?
