The Rise of Facebook Influencers: A Meaningless Trend or a Social Media Trap?

In recent days, a noticeable trend has emerged on Facebook—an increasing number of people, both men and women, are trying to become social media influencers. Initially, it was mostly housewives engaging in live sessions and content creation, but now, even men, including those with stable jobs and educational backgrounds, have started participating in this trend. While there is nothing inherently wrong with individuals expressing themselves online, the way many have chosen to do so is rather strange.

This consistent practice ensures that I can recall and use the word when the right moment arises. As I used to teach in high scho...

 Friendships are one of the most enriching aspects of life, offering us companionship, understanding, and emotional support. They are relationships we often cherish the most, as friends provide the kind of connection that is both fulfilling and sustaining. However, as I have learned through my own experiences, these relationships can also become complicated and even painful when we fail to maintain healthy boundaries. In my life, I’ve often found myself becoming very close to the people I befriend. When I form a bond with someone, I tend to throw myself fully into the relationship, sharing every aspect of my life with them, from my deepest fears to my most private secrets. This openness and vulnerability can create a powerful sense of closeness, but it has also led to some difficult and painful experiences. My tendency to become too emotionally invested in friendships has, at times, made me vulnerable to disappointment and heartache. I’ve realized that when boundaries are blurred, ...
