Every, I literally mean, every one of us has a self-obsessed *Selfie* maniac as a friend. Kindly don’t abuse/ridicule/embarrass them. Remember, they live life in a higher plane, a plane beyond the imaginations of Muggles like you. I would like to call it the *Selfie* way of life.
Ever wondered how your ugly friend sees her / (rarely) his face a million times a day without getting frustrated and breaking their phone?

Now to answer this we must invoke the inner being in all of us, and the common sense (Which at most times is put to sleep by you). It is mainly because they have seen the face of god; they realize that they’re one with him. Hence they try and have also succeeded in tolerating their faces.
Now how does this world aid this obsession? Let us first take into consideration, the peer pressure. You see, due to peer pressure people tend to change their paths of life and fall into something far beyond their control and end up living in it for the rest of their life. Then the aiding of the modern apps viz, Snapchat, Instagram and to a not-so-extreme level Facebook.
It is definitely hard for us to live amongst such enlightened people and hence, I would like to contribute to this fascinating phenomenon by giving a few suggestions. Like how Jane Goodall observed the chimpanzees, I spent my fair share time observing these people. And to quote the words of Inspector Jack Clouseau, “Then adapt we must”.

Below are my suggestions to people of this world. Kindly ponder over them and incorporate them in your life to a more successful living. May the force be with you.
1. Kindly brush your teeth. D A I L Y.
This is very vital people. Honestly, it’s just unbearable to see those golden teeth. It’s not appealing. It’s very gross. Also those little white things, please. It’s not for you alone; it’s for the general well being of the world.
2. Bathe. At least thrice in a week.
I know. It’s hard. But try.
3. Please look into the camera in 3 out of 4 *Selfie*s at least.
It’s highly annoying otherwise. Eye contact is necessary however stupid we are.
4. *Selfie* means you.
I know you love your friend. I know you can’t live without them. I know they’re your BFFs or any other fancy acronym. But when you send *Selfie*s please make sure it’s only you.
HOWEVER, this suggestion can be suspended in case your friend is a girl/boy and you’re sending it to a boy/girl and your friend is an Eye-candy. In this case, you’re actually paying respect to our relationship and it shall be returned in kind.
5. Adjust yourself and your face expressions.
I have seen from my roommate and well as other people. They actually take pains to make their *Selfie*s look good. Few suggestions include, adjust tee and shirt, brushing hair, washing face occasionally, and any other thing you can actually think of. I mean, if this isn’t kindness and compassion. I don’t know what is. These are good people. *Tears of happiness flow down*
Also minimise the animalistic love in your face. It’s better that way. Trust me.
I sincerely wish you best of luck in all your future endeavours. Though this isn’t a suggestion, kindly use maximum light areas as this is very vital in such professional photography. Live Long and Prosper.
