Whether social media is a blessing or a curse entirely depends on how we use it. Social media can give you well returns if you use it positively, on the other hand, you can waste a big chunk of your time on social media if you are doing it just to pass the time. No matter how much information or entertainment we are enjoying through social media, however, life can be great if you spend less time on social networking sites and more time in the real world.
