We live in a society where we believe we have all been named a certified critic. We share our opinions often and rarely think about the effect they may cause. We reach those opinions often times too quickly and aren’t willing to listen to others or ensure our facts are accurate. I personally believe that the rise of social media has lead to a society that needs immediate gratification. We overshare often and often take things out of context or misinterpret items that were published on social media. We often also serve as our most vocal critic. I find myself being harder on myself if I am tired and/or am surrounded by constant critiquing. These can be direct or indirect critiques. However, both have lead me down a negative path, where no rose-colored glasses are available.

And, just like that, another Greenwood County Fair is in the books. It was a great weekend filled with all types of emotions. From excitement to grief and shock to happiness. The youth of Greenwood County didn’t disappoint. If you were unable to attend the various events, you missed out.
