Good morning friends.
We have a very special feature today. Sammy & Family searched all over the Earth to find this story and yet it was right in front of us the whole time. We all know the term “Selfie” by now which means a person taking a picture of themselves. The Selfie was born from Social Media. In fact just two years ago nobody even heard of Selfie’s, its really a new phenomenon.
But three years ago, two sisters from Puerto Rico took a picture of themselves so they could both be in the picture. Hence the word “Selfie” — And low and behold my friends, those two sisters are Vanessa Martinez and Raquel Martinez. Yes, my wife and my sister in law. This is no joke, Vanessa and Raquel, just two nice women from Puerto Rico created The Selfie Generation and its here to stay.
Please allow me to elaborate the significance of their discovery. Over 100 Million Selfies are taken a day. So in a month 3 billion Selfies are taken by people Think of how staggering those numbers are.
Raquel and Vanessa Martinez have changed the face of Social Media forever. This discovery by them is as significant as when Neil Armstrong landed on the moon in 1969. We all know about the 7 wonders of the world, well now there are 8 wonders of the world, and the eighth wonder is called the “Selfie”
I am so proud of my wife Vanessa and her sister Raquel for changing the world as we know it. Additionally I feel like social media should acknowledge their revolutionary breakthrough and change the name “Selfie” to VRelfie. (Vanessa + Raquel + Selfie = “VRelfie”)
And that my friends is the history of the “Selfie” which is now called the “VRelfie”
Happy Sunday Funday. #RockOn
