DIGITAL SELF

Today, most of us people are now connected in the modern world. That our current

generations is now inclined with the technology around us and appreciating it’s big help

in making the lives of everyone easy. Through the continuous improvement and

innovation of technology, more and more people are getting in touch with it. Also, with the

help of the Internet today. People can now easily connect with everyone across the globe.

Social Media apps we’re created, so people can make their own profile or digital self to

be able to recognize by others.

Teenagers are most likely active on using the social media because they can freely

express their story, thoughts, insights, and feelings anytime they wanted to. In the online

world every individual has their own identity to represent, it can be who they really are or

maybe a different one to meet in the real world. The internet can also affect once self in

building his or her identity. But the biggest down part of the internet is that people tend to

hurt others and easily judge someone using the social media. This is the thing called

cyberbullying. Because of the free words that can be expressed by someone in the social

media it may give negative and positive effect to a persons digital self. If the negative

effect continuously grow to an individuals digital self, he or she may lead to suicidal

thoughts and if the positive effect is the one growing to once digital self, that person can
live in a normal way and can also be happy to improve his or her self to be a better person

to everyone in the online and offline world.

It is also sad to feel that the internet is taking advantage with everyone. Too much

focus on using the net can caused a decline in communicating with family members and

more time spent on social media apps may lead to certain addictions that can give failures

to physical health also in school academics. That is why it is our responsibility to use the

online world wisely and manage our time on using the internet.
