Going through my social media,
I realized that
When we look at a picture

For us, the filters
Are more important than the happiness.6
For us, the brightness of the picture
Is more important than the intensity of those smiles.
For us, the perfect pose
Is more important than the spark in those eyes.
For us, the background
Is more important than the foreground.

So, all I'm sayin' is
Modernity shouldn't come with fakeness and ignorance.
Be real.
Be yourself.
