Online friends "lightly show off" their happiness to share joy - Illustration: QUANG DINH
"Happy together, not happy then leave"
I spent a long time visiting the personal pages of some friends who are active on social networks.
A former colleague shared a photo of a corner of the red book. I was the one who witnessed the installment payment process after 6 years of working day and night, doing all the work inside and outside. In the comments below, friends sent congratulations because he deserved it. There were even people "asking for luck" to hope to have a new house like him.
This boast gives my friend recognition and motivation for those who love him to work hard. It is well worth the boast.
"I want to show off a little bit of what I've bought to make my wife and children less miserable. If anyone loves me or knows that I saved up to buy a house, I'll be happy. If anyone is mean or jealous, I won't post it for them to see. They keep those negative thoughts to themselves and don't say them directly to me. I just share and rejoice with those who love me first. If we're happy, we'll be happy together, if we're not happy, we'll leave," my friend said.
Another couple, after years of trying to find a child, spent so much sweat, tears, pain and faith. Last year, they burst into tears and showed off a black and white ultrasound photo of a tiny life.
At the beginning of the year, everyone congratulated the family photo of three members on the baby's first month with wishes and gifts. A few days later, the wife posted a photo of their baby, how adorable.
Now, just over 2 months old, the baby already has a fan club, and if he doesn't appear for a while, his aunts and uncles call out his name.
Looking at pictures of growing children is also a pleasure and happiness for others. Being addicted to children, showing off children brings joy to the whole community.
Thousands of ways to show off, attract thousands of joys

A random caption unrelated to the photo of the car's steering wheel, but everyone sent congratulations to my friend's family for buying a four-wheeled vehicle to protect the family of five from the rain and sun.
"Some people say I'm showing off my wealth. But I'm really showing off and I'm happy to show off the results of my hard work. My friends and family congratulate me.
Some people even sent me private messages to ask about my health and congratulate me, and they also asked me about my work experience and my experience in choosing a car. That boasting made me very proud," my friend replied when I asked, "Be careful, people might say you're showing off."
There is another university friend who is successful in her career, has a peaceful family and is beautiful. She often posts pictures of beautiful scenery in big tourist cities without revealing her face, just to share her interests in traveling and her different travel experiences in each region.
It's not hard to read comments like "so cool", "wish I could go like you", "good luck with your feet", "so classy, so beautiful"... Showing off without showing off, not showing off but showing off, subtly sharing about personal life, connecting people with the same interests as you.
Somewhere there is still a group of people who live in seclusion that we often joke about as "hidden tycoons". They still study to become better, work to accumulate more but do not share much about their lives on social networks. However, they are still satisfied in their own way.
On the other hand, "talking about poverty and hardship" is also a way to share and some people will sympathize when they see themselves in that story, while others will feel disgusted when they have to read negative things.
There are many different ways to show off your personality and your need to share without affecting or harming anyone.
How to filter information and balance emotions and behaviors is up to the receiver's freedom, so that they can always draw useful lessons based on other people's stories.
What do you think about showing off joy and happiness on social networks? In your opinion, should we keep our happiness to ourselves and our loved ones? Please share your views to the email address [email protected]. Tuoi Tre Online thanks you.
