Take me back to the 90’s

The world today has been drowned in madness. Things used to be so simple back in the day Where you’d have a birthday party, invite friends and family and also the family ‘photoo’ (photographer) to capture the moment. Today, we see people temporarily securing an entire luxurious apartment just for a photoshoot only to be posted on social media for validation. Wedding ceremonies have now become a business for decor facilitators, as the cost of decorating a single wedding venue alone could likely secure a quarter plot of land in the suburbs. You will find seven people seated in a room with all heads bent down and glued to their mobile devices. No one actually ignites and holds a verbal conversation. The era of validation from society through social media likes, views and comments. Where people fall for people who hide behind facial beauty enhancement filter applications through technology. Where virtual communication is more dominant than a physical one. Where courting/dating has only elapsed a little short period of 3-4 months and suddenly feel the need to finally exchange vows. Where divorce cases are hitting towering heights Where cheating is now normal and accepted. Where there are now ‘open committed’ relationships Where people turn to suicidal thoughts when the pressures from this cyber society becomes utterly unbearable. Where a man’s measure of success is his material wealth or fame. I could go on and but.... please take me back to the good old 90’s Thanks P.S: Louis
