In this social media driven world that we live in,
Many people do things not because it's what they believe in,
but often just for the simple reason,
Of shares and likes,
So they tend to hit send,
Without even thinking twice.
One thoughtless post,
Which to you may seem like a harmless joke,
Can end up hurting you the most,
But also effecting those, that are close,
To the point where they can no longer trust you,
Just ask D'angelo Russell,
He secretly recorded a private conversation with a teammate and friend,
And in just a few hours after he hit send,
Their friendship and the respect in his name quickly came to an end,
De angelo,
Translation, from the angels,
Location, the city of angels,
And through his painful lesson,
He has sent us an angelic blessing,
This is the message,
Don't give everything to the Little birdie on twitter or the snap chat ghost,
We must always know,
That once you click post,
It will never completely erase,
The impact is here to stay
So, if you are not willing to face,
The possibility,
Of damaging your legacy,
Betraying your community,
Loosing future job opportunities,
And hurting a friend,
Think twice before you hit send.
Don't Waste Our Planet
