Social Networking Vs. Relationship

Here we learn Communicate
Here we learn to Contradict
Here we learn to Debate
Here we practice Co-ordinate
Here on this earth, everywhere, at all the times….in all the ways…..
We learn to LIVE!

While we spend a long time with people around us, we don’t recognize that we are bound with the Society. But spending a very short moment gives an unbearable and uneasy experience of loneliness. In fact, we are trapped into this labyrinth of varied relationships and become fond of it.

Do you know why a big part of the world’s population comes under the category of Stressed People? The most remarkable common factor among these people is their failure in communication or in relationship. Now, I believe that when we are alone, spending time without any communication we become introvert. Mostly, a lonely person with lot of thoughts starts talking himself or herself. Just like the famous characters of Shakespearean plays-Hamlet and King Lear. These are ultimate models of self communicating human beings. Their loneliness was not only physical, but also psychological. We call this situation as Alienation.

The alienation of a person may be from friends, parents, society, a particular place (e.g. native place) or from the material and spiritual world. I experienced that this alienation or loneliness makes us to concentrate and think about the things that we don’t notice usually. The power of observation and analysis of incidents shows its best output ever experienced.

Here, I would like to mention my own this kind of experience at a remote place. Of course, it was not actually a remote place. I was among the hundreds of folks who had gathered to seek the pleasure of the beauty of nature, loving personalities, pleasure of entertainment and the pleasure of peace. We have been accepting the sentence-“Man is a Social Animal”. This animal is fond of society and crowd.

Today, we have plenty of options to communicate debate and express our thoughts. These channels are social networking, blogging, messaging and chatting with a friend who is sitting at a distant place. Some people find their peace in chatting with the people whom they’re not familiar face to face or have not met even once throughout their lives. Therefore, we rarely get time for self interaction and observe the incidents around us.

The question arises that how a person can seek pleasure in chatting or talking to an unknown person? How would you believe that the other person is able understand your condition? There can be another aspect that these blind-chatting folks are afraid of knowing that somebody knows their mind. This type of communication can’t be counted as a relationship but just NETworking where what maters I just connections technically. It doesn’t matter whether you are emotionally involved in that “connection”.

I think, the Social Networking can be the primary step to build a relationship, and the “Connectors” may use it to check its sustainability and feasibility.

  1. Very True and the line "Mostly, a lonely person with lot of thoughts starts talking himself or herself." I see at least a person(not the street people but working people ) daily talking to himself.
    It all bcoz of the buzy schedule and stress i think...where one do not have time to communicate.
