I do get to see a lot of pictures of my friends on Facebook; selfie shots, travel pics, pigging out, outfit-of-the-day, and whatever hash tagged posts. I feel envy every time I see a picture posted. I envy them, not just because they went here, they've eaten there, they wore this, blah blah blah, but because they are happy. Clicking "Like" is like saying "I envy you so much".
But a thought came through my mind. Maybe they're not really happy. They're just pretending to be happy. They really don't have a lot of things to do so they took a picture of whatever they've been through and posted it. And then you pretend that you're happy for them. But the truth is your not. You're neither happy nor sad. You're cool with it but your brain is screaming "so what?!?"
I miss those Kodak moments kept in an album, and pictures kept for memories.
