Virtual vanity
Uploading pictures on social networking sites is no longer the same. Some youngsters hold special photo-shoots for their online profiles...
Let's admit it; we are all, to some extent, a bunch of narcissists. For what is humility, but an indirect boast! If your thoughts are still not in tune with the idea, we suggest you log into your Facebook account and analyse the pompous show of self-obsession in the profile pictures of your friends, relatives and even you for that matter!
It's a social dilemma; you've got to look good to be appreciated, to get those Facebook likes and compliments that will leave you in high spirits. We are all, after all, social beings!

You have to fix priorities. Different types of plants are there in the garden. Some are fruit trees, in bearing, and there are vegetables too in the kitchen garden.
