Speech on Social Media
INTRODUCTION
Respected Principal Sir/Madam, teachers and dear fellow students. Before this beautiful day I have been given a lucky chance to address the future of our digital world. In my full effort and love I intend to say a few words regarding my topic- “Social Media”.
BODY
You are a product of your surroundings and by surroundings I don’t mean just the physical world but also the virtual world. The virtual world of social media, a media platform that is social, and a different world in its own it offers us with limitlesspossibilities. Doors which once were non-existent now being born every day, one by one with almost the whole world on social media we are now witnessing our national boundaries vanish, we are more closer and communication is pretty much instant. But we must not forget our responsibilities when we use social media. No doubt social media gives us freedom of speech and action but there are certain limits and rules to which every citizen must oblige and must recognize his or her rights on social media platforms. I think and wonder we have a very powerful and potent tool as social media yet there exist no authority who teaches us how to use it. Well I know your reaction to this question, we know how to use it and it is simple, but May I need remind you of the long list of crimes and misdeeds which criminals commit and we innocent fall prey to, and the numbers are increasing day by day. We trust someone on social media we never met and provide them with all our private information, and mistakenly if that person happens to be a felon, you are up for a rude awakening. See the problem exist not in the social media platform but the knowledge we lack in handling strangers. Of course technology has its limits and no felon is purely immune to his or her disguise but what remains of concern here is the fact we are very careless in ways we handle our private life on social media. Talk about the advantages of social media, there are many to count like we can talk with our friends and family, share good times and memories online, we can learn with our peers and share knowledge with them. We can use social media platforms to raise money for good cause, raise awareness on social topics, and watch worldwide news. The effects of social media are debatable but we must say, everybody likes to use social media platforms. It is indeed a good form of entertainment. One more important thing we must understand is we tend to binge the time too much at times and it also interferes with our daily lives and schedules. As I ‘ve mentioned earlier, adding to it one most important thing is the use of social media must be for rightful and education causes, occasional entertainment is alright but when children and even the adults binge their time carelessly, time which can used for something productive and better, what results is clearly not good.
CONCLUSION
On a good note I would like to tell you all that social media is here to stay, decision to be a part of isn’t the problem, only problem is our irresponsible use. So use social media responsibly. Thank you all for being such a good and patient crowd.
