My Sunday Comics Approach to Facebook
Scrolling through Facebook can feel pretty overwhelming. It’s packed with emotions, opinions, and random snapshots of everyone’s lives. For a while, I let myself get stressed out, leaving me drained from all the drama and heated debates. Then it hit me: what if I just thought of Facebook like the Sunday funnies? Now, when I open Facebook, I picture myself relaxing with a cup of coffee. I browse through the top posts like they’re headlines in a newspaper, picking out what I want to check out. I often find myself laughing at the funny memes and videos, and they really help brighten my day. Sometimes I stumble across weird stories from friends that feel like soap opera plot twists. Instead of diving into the drama, I treat them like fictional tales and don’t let them get to me. They’re just part of the mix online. I also enjoy seeing beautiful travel photos. They give me a nice little break from my routine, and instead of feeling jealous, I just appreciate how stunning they are. Ads pop up here and there, but I know they're just marketing attempts and quickly scroll past them, like skipping a boring comic strip. The main thing is to not take Facebook too seriously. I’ve learned to keep it light and fun. Everyone only shares bits of their lives online, so I focus on my own life instead of comparing myself to others. By treating Facebook as entertainment, I can scroll through without feeling overwhelmed. Sure, some posts are funny or strange, but at the end of the day, they’re just pixels on a screen. This change has been freeing. Facebook isn’t a source of stress or unfair comparisons anymore; it’s just somewhere I can enjoy a few moments of light-hearted fun. So next time you scroll through Facebook, try looking at it like the Sunday funnies. It might just bring you some joy and balance to your day. After all, that’s all it really deserves.
