How long did it take before you saw something that made you roll your eyes or made your blood boil? Negativity is almost impossible to avoid these days, with social media permanently ingrained in our daily routine. Sure you can always log off or suspend your account; we all need a breather every now and then. But how long do those periods last? Not very long, I would presume.
In a world where everybody’s divided, labeled, and judged according to their politics, beliefs, and preferences, it’s easy to forget that we’re all just people. We all want to live our lives the way we want to. We all have hopes and dreams, for ourselves and our loved ones.
Take a break from all the Facebook drama, Twitter fights, and negative news. Watch this cover of John Lennon’s “Imagine” by Pentatonix. It just might bring a bit of joy and positivity to your day.
A reminder that—whether you’re a man, woman, or LGBTQ+; conservative or liberal, Android or iOS user, console or PC master race, Kapuso or Kapamilya, Swiftie or KatyCat—we are all human.
