Stop Instagramming Your Perfect Life - Shauna Niequist


Sometimes, reading other people's exciting status updates, seeing their new travel albums  or hearing about their new 'toys' can make you feel like your own life is dull, boring and lacking.    Before you feel insecure and inadequate about your own life, try to remember that no one's life is perfectly amazing or happy.   It only looks that way on their facebook or instagram accounts. As the writer said, we are the curators of our social media account.  We control what people see and most of the time, we only show the amazing, awesome parts …. not the messes, the quarrels, the problems.
