Social media, for the most part, is a wasteland. Anyone who has spent more than five minutes online understands that most social media platforms are nothing more than lies, profanity and hate. Facebook and Twitter are the places with most of that divisive and hate-filled content.
Most people use social media in negative ways. Instead of uplifting or encouraging people, most users have found various ways to tear one another down. As awful and worthless a place as social media can be, some have chosen to use it in other, more positive ways.
Actress Jennifer Garner, who has a massive following on Instagram, commonly posts funny and heartfelt videos and messages to her page. In one of her latest clips on Instagram, the “Alias” actress creatively found a way to avoid gravity.
The short clip shows the famous actress performing a series of seemingly gravity-defying jumps in quick succession. These jumps show the actress taking several silly poses throughout the room. In a couple of them, she is even holding a beautiful gray cat and shooting and scoring on a basketball hoop in another jump.
Of course, she doesn’t actually defy gravity. It’s a law that everyone on Earth must follow. At the very beginning of the video, Jennifer lets everyone in on the trick. She has a small trampoline with which she starts her initial jump, and then, through the magic of video editing, it’s removed for the rest of her jumps and silly poses.
In the video’s caption, Jennifer indicated that she felt like making the video for no reason other than it was “something silly” and “just because.”
Life can be complicated at times, and sometimes, “something silly” is what we all need for no other reason than “just because.”
Proverbs 17:22 “A glad heart makes a healthy body, but a crushed spirit makes the bones dry.”
