Ask any youngster “Do
you have a Facebook account?”, the chance of getting a negative reply is
infinitesimally small. Facebook is a synonym of youth, youth never remain calm,
it is always up to something. People on face book expose and express things
that shouldn't be exposed and things shouldn't be expressed in open.
I do understand their
feeling but if ever they want to do it, there should be a limit to it. If you
cross your limit someone can take you for a ride than it is for the person on
the ride to decide whether the ride is joyous or sorrowful but that is
Facebook. Every time I open my Facebook account, ever-fresh updates are sure to
be there. Generally someone brushes up acquaintances with someone, someone
befriends someone, someone praises someone’s beauty and so on and so forth. The
most common and highest ranking comment is “LIKE IT”. It is so easy and so handy.
A friend of mine told me
a story: Once a thief in high spirit was enjoying his success of having stolen
a hefty booty, lost in his thought of not having to steal for months. A ring of
the door-bell brought about a dramatic change of his scene and mood. As he crack-opened
the door to see who it was; a strong hand held him by the collar and within
minutes he was in front of an interrogation team within a jail. He confessed of
having committed the robbery and regretted being addicted to the Facebook
especially posting pictures on it. unfortunately he posted the picture of his
booty too.
How strange, not only
decent people but, gangster, thieves, criminals and many others use Facebook.
Criminals and police are like wife and husband. Where ever the wife goes the
husband just follows. So the police too are on the Facebook and believe me if
there was a certification being done. They would get distinction.
How can we forget
ladies. When a dish is ready to be served there is a formality to be completed.
It has to be pictured and posted on the Facebook. And the rest is to be done by
public, but the sad part is, they have to comment on it, only by looking at it;
tasting is not within their reach.
Updating a profile photo
is a very common feature of Facebook operation. Youngster often do that. One
day I thought let me try it, with any delay I updated my profile photo. The
photo exhibited me in an impressively dressed formal attire hugging a four to
five month chubby baby. Her sparkling white eyes with contrasting black cornea
were spelling magic. She was staring at me right into my face.
Minutes later there was
a flood of comments; one of the comments went to the extents of asking what is
this? Whose is this? Did you get married for the second time?
I told him in Saudi Arabia there is
no reason and there is no season; and it is official to get married four times.
But tell me why are you so much worried?
He didn’t comment further but I
continued. The same thing I can do it when I come to your home. Share it with
your wife. Your younger daughter is expecting, isn’t it? When she is blessed
with a baby. Arrange a photo shoot, I will come smartly dressed and no sooner
do you take our photo, immediately, I will update my profile photo. Ha, Ha, Ha,
