STOP AND THINK BEFORE YOU SHARE! I beg you to read this!

What you do online, the things you post and the videos you share have great power in influencing others who can see them. Just remember that when you post something, it will stay there and circulate until you and everybody else takes it down (if you are bothered to take it down). Things circulate forever online, and messages spread faster than the speed of light (just an expression, it logically doesn't). Whatever you post shows what kind of a person you are, and it really can influence you as much as it does to others.

Here’s a little scenario to help you understand why.

So you post something online, in hopes that you get feedback. Let’s say, you’re feeling good today, and you want to share your joy. So you post something nice online, hoping to get positive feedback and that someone will be inspired by what you posted. You start scrolling through the comments; most of the responses are pleasant… Until that one bad seed pops out of nowhere complaining about how miserable they are. Doesn’t that just ruin the mellow vibe that you are trying to set through your post? Feel free to yell “PARTY POOPER!”

Matthew 15:11 says: What goes into someone's mouth does not defile them, but what comes out of their mouth, that is what defiles them.

It goes the same with what you feed other people's minds with. We, with our human minds, are drawn to and are influenced too easily by negative things. If one little negative comment can spoil everything for your, intentionally good, post, then what more posting negative things on your social media accounts every single day!

Be careful of what you post online. If you need to complain, find someone who can listen and help you with your problems, there are billions and billions of people in the world; you will eventually find someone who is willing to give you his or her time to care for you. Do not dwell in the junk that makes you unhappy, it’s like living in a stinky dumpster! Find a way to solve your problems. It will make life so much easier to live through. Lastly, be a blessing to someone and keep yourself happy as well. Stop posting negative things online because not only can it deliver bad news to someone, but you will realize that you are also swimming in that filthy mud puddle!

Be happy!
