Let it go.

Don’t hold on to the pain of the things that you couldn’t change. Believe you are not broken. Move forward. Nothing about what you are doing is wrong. Those who are helping you, love you. It is not because they feel something is owed. You don’t have to destroy yourself silently to protect the feelings of those who can do for you, what you have done for so many other people. It is not your job to always be on top. It isn’t the right thing to do to keep yourself at peace though you think that it is. You aren’t a rock. You are only human. You can only carry the weight that your mind and body allow you to you. Mental and emotional strength are defined by the training and work you put into them. Just like you need to work your body to stay healthy you need to work the mind. You can’t keep everything dormant and expect it just to fix itself. Work your mind, your emotions, just like you want to work your body. This doesn’t mean to think about them over and over until you have decided that they are gone. This means to express the things you mean and need to to those around you. To talk to someone about what is eating you inside. Release the pressure into the world and the weight off of your own shoulders. I know you feel like you need to carry things all on your own. I know that you feel it is a weakness to admit that you can’t do it. That you want to believe somewhere deep down inside that you can do anything absolutely alone. But that isn’t real life. Strength doesn’t come from having no weakness. It comes from accepting it and learning to cope and find ways to handle what makes you weak in this world. With no negative there can be no positive. Everyone around you is strong. You surround yourself with people who do the same thing as you just so that you can feel like it is normal. Teach them. Teach yourself that nothing about keeping everything to yourself makes you strong. Make a family out of orphans, broken, and damned. In each is a strength you can’t understand and a soft spot you can’t repair. Everything is lighter when you have help holding it. Give it up. Let it go.

Mind Maze. 12x12”. Acrylic on canvas. For sale. $350 dm me. Maybe it was that time I was stuck in a hyper cube? Up down in out. At first I couldn’t escape. From what? My mind.... how can you first even be trapped inside the mind. Your always in it. Acceptance. Understanding. It was like instead of falling I felt more like I was anticipating or navigating the turns. Going into the flow. The gates are filled with keepers. Helping or hindering. Maybe they were in charge of this ride? Maybe they are me. #mindmaze #hypercube #beingsoflight #eyes #watchers #universaltruth #love #flow #letgo #freethemind #create #live https://www.instagram.com/p/B1C25TbBo8u/?igshid=x2wc13es3q39

Machines and Programs Shape Society

When it comes to Social Media and the News, I like to believe they are very much best friends and will continue to be forever. With multiple social media platforms people are able to portray and manipulate a controversial event of topic however they please. What makes this worse is having the same information cycled through every individuals social media timeline depending on who and what content they are associated with. Overall what we see and when we see it is determined by Algorithms, Advertising, and Exposure.

Social media relies heavily on algorithms that select and prioritize what content we “might” want to see while attempting to maximize our engagement with that specific content plus our time. This has tremendously limited the amount of information that we as users are able to see unless shared or heard about from another person. After reading this article the crazy part is how these algorithms make these decisions on their own, by personalizing content and tailoring search results to reflect our own interests, or that what we like to believe. Also I don not agree with the algorithms having the power to exclude information on certain news and political matters that truly need to see the sunlight. The excluded information could be the determining factor on two sides seeing an agreement or flipping both perspective views. 

Advertisement has become quite aggressive as the years go by and social media has not made it any easier on us. social media has made it extremely easy for business to target ads to specific groups of people due to the buying and selling of user data. But this is exactly why social media is free because when we sign up we actually pay with our personal information on our profiles and through the content we like, post, and share. Adding to this, content that goes viral and actors who target people are misleading and easily taps into peoples emotions. Depending on the content that goes viral, this can lead to “click baiting” and potentially can conflict with any individuals morals or views.

Last, but certainly not least is the topic of exposure. There is a common practice among the human population to share information or content that aligns with their existing beliefs. As a great example from the article of an election scenario, people will only be selective towards the information because of their ideology  being aligned with the content they are subscribed to. When on board with a specific candidate, people will choose to only see the positive despite what other facts or opinions may float around.

-A great example would be the election of 2008 when Obama was running against John McCain. Reporters went to extreme lengths to find dirt on Obama. The one emphasized the most was his major old habit of smoking in late 20s early 30s. Those people who liked Obama did not care what habits he has or currently was working on, they still voted for him despite all that was being said about him.

Overall this is my opinions and feelings on the subject and ultimately believe that the algorithm system be tweaked to not heavily filter content so that all may be seen by the public. Majority of the human population do not care about the exposure of information they give out on the daily, but if i had to give a recommendation of an action, i’d say to stop indulging on social media with your personal content and business need to stop selling personal info of society around to other businesses and rely on true advertisement, because at the end of the day people will gravitate towards what they like or want.

This is the most satisfying thing I saw today. Feels so soft and calming to see for the mind; close to 'I wanna touch it'. But in real, so hot and toxic it could burst the hell out of you. Knowing this fact, it's even more amazing. Nature is truly adorable and special. Wow...
