politics or selfie

I saw a post in Facebook telling everyone to remove him from their friends list if they keep on posting their political rants, as he is tired and sick of it. I kinda feel offended because I often share my thoughts regarding our country's political climate. Then I ask myself, which is more relevant: political point of views or  the daily egocentric selfies?

Like, everyone's using the social media to showcase their daily activities, outfit of the day, food from a posh restaurant (sometimes just house food) and whatever drama they have. I respect their posts. And I think they should respect mine as well.

I don't know whats wrong with voicing out your opinions on current social issues, but I guess people are just tired of negativity and that their workplace should be enough for that. I just hope that once in a while, they could show concern on what's really happening around them as much as the people who gave concern on their half naked pictures in the internet.

Should I Go "Commercial"?

My blog doesn't have much views. It feels useless doing this. Well, I really don't care as I only use this blog as my sort of "electronic drama diary".
Now I ask myself, is it essential for a blog to be viewed or read by a lot of people? What's a blog for when you can post articles or ideas through Facebook and other quick access media platforms?
Nowadays, there are a lot of people who are making a lot of money by using their blogs for advertisement and marketing purposes. Because of this, blogs became a medium for a person to show how a company or brand take over his life. One posts an article about a certain product and tells good stuff about it, then brags about how good his life is with this product. Bloggers are happy because these products are given to them for free, and most of the time with cash. I'm beginning to envy them.
I'm not closing my doors to this idea, but for now I'll stick to how my blog is doing.
