Supermodel Hailey Beiber recently took to Instagram to talk about a few important things. She shared an important message about human connection and revealed how social media has hurt her immensely in the past. The wife of the Canadian singer, Justin Bieber, spoke out about the struggles she's faced due to social media and used her online presence to spread love. She put out a lengthy Instagram post saying, "I would say my most favorite part of existing is human connection. I absolutely love connecting with other people, I love finding common interests between me and others, hearing people’s story, I love laughing with others, and I love crying with others. I feel so very very deeply. My heart explodes with happiness when my friends and family are happy and my heart feels crushed when they are hurting and sad."
She added, "The reason I say all of this is: because I love to connect, I do my best to expose my heart which means I love freely and I empathize deeply, and because of that I also hurt very easily when I feel like people don’t see my heart and see me for who I am."
Hailey addressed the toxic nature of social media and how she felt 'torn' because of it in the past. "The reason I’m even sharing this is because Instagram, Twitter, etc is SUCH a breeding ground for cruelty towards each other, and because people don’t take the time to connect with each other on an honest level before they resort to hatred, it starts to damage what could be really beautiful human interaction and connection. I could sit here all day and say the hate doesn’t bug me, that the words that are said don’t affect me. But NEWS FLASH: it hurts to be torn apart on the internet!!!" The supermodel revealed that it 'hurts to be compared to other human beings' on a regular basis and concluded the post by urging her fans to reach out more often.
