RE: Perspective, Dentists & Facebook - Something about Day Eight [DAY ONE: The Book]

in #freewrite6 years ago

With each “day” of this project your writing is getting better, so keep it up! As far as FB goes, I hear ya. Even though I quit last fall and haven’t really posted at all, I still go on there to see what my friends are doing (and thinking), but also what is happening in the Crypto scene and of course my local Cannabis scene. Except for the Crypto everything I read there just upsets me. I miss my friends, but I just can’t go back there. It’s like a tunnel that is getting narrower and narrower the further you go down it. I am afraid that my friends are all going to be stuck there, even though I have tried very hard to get them over here. So far I have managed to get my husband @hallamhighwater (with your help) on here and maybe one of my friends is thinking about it! Steemit is definitely harder to use than FB because there is more work involved, you have to think, you have to interact, you have to read, view, and comment. I hate to say it, but it seems my friends have become lazy. I will keep on trying, but it will be a long haul.

You make a valid point. So is it safe to say Social Media has made people lazy? Well, if that's the case I'm happy to leave and not be a "lazy" one. But you know what! You are all that matters and all that matters to you is what matters! Friends come and go. Plus wasn't it you who said to me "no matter where you go, there you are"? Just do you, make new friends. Life is good! I'm happy to be leaving Facebook and I am not worried about the FOMO ;)
