Everyone stares at their own device, getting addicted to the bright screen shown in front of them, scrolling to different kinds of applications installed there, also called: "Social Media". Social media refers to the means of interactions among people in which they create, share, and/or exchange information and ideas in virtual communities and networks. There are many social media applications, such as Instagram, Tiktok, Twitter, and many more. There are certain situations where social media impacts our lives. Which begs the question: what’s the impact of social media on our lives? 

To begin with, I would like to elaborate whilst outlining important information and points of the argument. There are two things connected with "Impact": Positive and negative. Inside this paragraph, I will try to elaborate the positive effects impacted by social media. Social media enables you to: Communicate and stay up to date with family and friends around the world. Find new friends and communities; network with other people who share similar interests or ambitions. Join or promote worthwhile causes; raise awareness on important issues. From my statements, social media does have benefits we can use when applying to thousands of apps. For things to add, social media helps numerous communities such as schools, organizations, etc. For example, the school principal needs to announce the new schedule for students and teachers to use. Other than that, social media allows you to explore deep in your interests, plenty of people in the art community have improved due to tutorials and such displayed on the internet. On the other hand, social media has a lot of positive things, although there is always the shadow in the corner of your room.

Not only positive, but negative is included in this topic. A great amount of negative impacts spreaded through social media, in this case, the media can and will change a person's life if not used properly. There are plenty of teenagers affected, for the reason that put through their young lives in misery: limiting direct contact with peers and encouraging constant comparison online, which can lead to low self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. In addition, not only teenagers were affected, adults and children can too. Like I said, there are uncountable things displayed in social media, strange things can be played on the device's screen. Such as pornography, gore, and paranoid media is accessed with a tap of a finger. People can also be brain-struck by addiction. Participating to watch those topics will damage the brain, unlike others who grew up with proper media.

In Conclusion, I personally think social media has equal negative and positive impact. Actually iy depends on how we personally use social media. However, we must be able to distinguish between good and bad stuff from social media.
