Are we so concerned with what people think of us.. that the vast communication available to us only becomes a flaw in the system. Does it fill our insecurities or does it diminish them slightly when we get to up our image in a way which we perceive does us good. And if this image is really a construction to recreate a new found brightness in our lives, is the construction of another influencing the way we behave or is it the deconstruction of a past image.
When looking good, flashing celebrities, cars and the booze is what sparks our profile pages, is that what truly makes up happy or does it merely help us fit in into a social context which is available to us. Do we fail to consider the social construct that is in action through the larger system, or are we merely living in the present. Why is it then that certain externalities increase our facebook friend numbers, our popularity and our word of mouth. Is it the buzz that we have created or is the reaction of another's to our image construction. And do these things truly fill us, make us happy and fulfill a need in our lives or are they merely a temporary reaction to a particular moment in time, like an addiction one has that is needed to re-fill an empty part of ourselves twice a day at times.
Is this a sign that we've become so engrossed into social functions that we forget to discover our own identity. And if no one is to blame, do we ever consider the larger picture and the people we have become because of the normalcy standards that are expected from our society. And does society ever truly make its own decisions or are they programmed to behave in the way that political discourses have basically demanded of them.
With so much external noise and clutter, can we truly ever know ourselves without disconnecting from everything that is not the inner space that dwells within. And is there a need to re-program our brains so that our mental chatter is but a reflection of ourselves and not that of any other mental waves.
