“Part of the problem is that we expend far too much effort comparing our behind-the-scenes reality with everyone else’s public highlight reels, posted in envy-inspiring terms, meant to catch our eye and make us wish we had that person’s life. What we forget is that social media posts are like snapshots: Here’s a happy photo of us at that wonderful event. We don’t usually take pictures of daily chores, fights with spouses, and children throwing tantrums. That happy snapshot doesn’t represent an entire life. But for some reason, we take internalize these snapshots and wonder why our own lives are not as seemingly perfect.” https://www.huffingtonpost.com/ritusharma/our-curated-lives-the-ins_b_5711825.html
