Valentine’s Day in the time of social media

Would it be fair to say that occasions and celebrations in life are now marked as important because of the inclination to show them off on social media?

Often, the first thought that crosses your mind after clicking a picture is: ‘Is it good enough to put up on Facebook?’

It’s no news that many of us are addicted to brag about our perfect life on social media.

It’s Valentine’s Day on February 14 and many in-love couples intend to celebrate the day in their own way but can we deny that in the back of their mind, they want to show the world how they celebrated their love?

This video by Broken Cameras Films showcases the culture of social media ‘show off’, with a message about how one should really celebrate valentine ’s Day or any other occasion for that matter.
