What if the whole life is not brilliant? ” and the reason for the social media storm

Mi Lan |

According to statistics from the Google Trend tool, the question "What if my whole life isn't brilliant?" was searched for a surge in March, especially on March 18-19.

What if this whole life is not brilliant?" or "What if this whole life is not brilliant?" became a "trend" on social media platforms. Many users shared this question and went to find their own answers.

This phrase appeared from the beginning of March, and became a "keyword" with a sudden increase on platforms on March 18-19, the day before International Day of Happiness March 20.

If you observe the trendy trends on social networks, how social networks operate according to user habits, you will see that the question "If the whole life is not brilliant, then what" is somewhat... paradoxical.

Social networks have always been likened to an exhibition area, where people together "display" certificates of merit, scores, achievements, a place for users to post luxurious travel photos, buy million-dollar cars, and show off glamorous villas.

So what, what reason has made a world known for the trends of "displaying", "showing off", "showing off"... like social media platforms spread, creating a "trend" with the question "What if the whole life is not brilliant?".

Dr. Tim Bono, a psychologist at the University of Washington (USA), once pointed out that social networks make us less happy. Comparisons and jealousy when surfing social networks, the way we are caught up in trends because of FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) psychology have created pressure that we cannot fully imagine. Pressure for flashiness, pressure to succeed, pressure to be brilliant.

The question, "What if the whole life is not brilliant?" touches the psychology of the "FOMO" generation who are spinning in all kinds of life pressures. Work pressure, income pressure, study pressure, plus the pressure of virtual glamour from the FOMO psychology itself on social networking platforms.

When tired enough of pressure, asking the question "What if the whole life isn't brilliant?" – will become a "keyword" capable of healing and comforting.

The fact that many users share and press "likes" on this question will help you realize that there are many people who think the same way, worry the same, and think the same way as you. Among the myriad of answers "commented" under the posts "What if my whole life is not brilliant?", most of the content is, "it's okay", "I feel brilliant, that's enough", "brilliant in my own way"... these answers have become comfort, easing the pressures we are burdened with.

International Day of Happiness (March 20), another question is raised, so if brilliant - are you happy? Is brilliance synonymous with happiness? All this life, is what we seek and strive for happiness or brilliance?

Along with the trend "If the whole life is not brilliant then what", a song also becomes "viral" as a consolation, healing - "Noi phao hoa ruc ro" by Hoang Dung.

In which, the chorus is medleyed, spreading throughout the platforms, "... It's okay if we are not glorious/It's okay if we are not steadfast/Life is not easy for many/Finding glory becomes a bright star/Just need a place to return to/A stopover for us to be comforted...".

The song has a healing color, sending a message to everyone who has a loving family. Whoever you are, whether you succeed or fail, whether you are rich or poor, high or low salary... you can still return home, be comforted and caressed by parents - relatives. For family, you are a brilliant fireworks.
