Really great observation... I agree social media makes us think that we need validation from others to feel that we are doing something "cool" or "great."
While I also love technology, I do think it has prevented me from developing certain skills such as my ability to read maps and understand where the heck I am even at! Dang Google Maps! LOL
But love this different perspective on technology.
Yeah, social media has really given birth to some unforeseen problems. I wish I knew where I was or was going without Google Maps, but my sense of direction just sucks!! haha
hahaha we are slaves to our technology! If I ever lost my phone... well that would just be it.... I would just be lost forever.
