How Pinteresting

It’s interesting how social media can often get a bad rep, and understandably so. I think that there is one type of social media that helps more than hinders (this may be me justifying my actions). I’m frequently on Pinterest. I see this type of social media as one that expands your thinking. It helps in creativity, building hobbies, and staying fit (when the ideas pinned are actually implemented).


Of course there can be too much of a good thing, being addicted to Pinterest isn’t a good thing. However, there is so much to explore and it’s fun to see new styles of things as well as things that your friends are interested in. Pinterest is not a popularity contest like Facebook and Instagram can be. I see it as a way to get new ideas and keep track of the things that you like. It can even be uplifting and inspiring.

  1. I agree with you. Pinterest is amazing and it really has helped me to find inspiration for crafts and cooking. I think it's a blessing that we can find so much information in one place. Heavenly Father wants us to share our talents and learn from others and I think that Pinterest is a great platform for doing this without the popularity contest aspect of other social media.
