She then explained, "Our reality can be warped because it's based on a personalized algorithm...We can create our own false reality when we're not fed a balance of what's truly going on in the world. It's easy to forget that there's still so much to discover outside of our phones."

"I'm grateful I have the ability to choose what I want to share," Bey said. This is largely why followers of the trailblazer have kept such a close eye on the content that she does post.

In today's world, this may seem odd to some, but we're totally inspired.
