Have you ever just wanted someone else's life? I have but when I really think about if I would trade my issues, problems, struggles with anyone else, the answer is no! Yes, I would love my life to be a little easier at times but EVERYONE has their struggles regardless of who they are and how amazing of life it may appear they have. It's an illusion.
I've learned to have a boundary with social media and not allow it to take anything from my life. My business is such that I need social media as a tool but I only allow myself 15 minutes a day. Sometimes I slip and do what I call "Facebook cut" and somehow find things that upset me, such as old people from my life. I'm pretty sure we've all done it but it's really detrimental to our well being, at least mine.
The only way I can be happy and at peace with my life is to stay in my life and mind my own business. I always have to remind myself that I'm progressing at my own pace and celebrate the victories I've achieved. I find that journaling helps remind me how far I've come.
God gave each of us a path to walk and our own garden to plant and watch grow. Staying focused on your my own path and nurturing the things that I'm creating brings me happiness and peace.
