We all live in a world where we know what FB means. Most of us find ourselves referring to FB posts as though we have had an intimate converstation with that person recently. However the truth of the matter is we haven't. We have let FB replace relationships, a good old fashioned phone call or god forbid a written card. That is why I decided to leave.
I was having a converstation with my husband the other night about how distance I felt from him as I scrolled though FB on my phone. Looking back on that I could just kick myself...distant yes I am distant because I am too busy looking at what my 300 plus friends are doing instead of what is going on right under my own roof. Let's get real for a minute..first off I was kind of a loser in high school. Not all that attractive fairly overweight and I most certainly did not have 300 friends. So why in the world do I care if the boy who probably didn't even know my name in high school had enchildas for dinner.
The point is, I am blessed to have a husband that I love. A daughter who fills every minute of life with joy. A job that not only pays well but that I enjoy. And a beautiful home and all the good things that come with it. I want to stop and savor my life...Leave the 300 plus FB friends to have their lives and welcome the people into my life who I actually consider "friends" and not FB friends.
