I've always been an interactive social media user. I've loved the groups, the drama, the humor and being able to connect and be apart of strangers internet lives. Yesterday something happened, something that I'm not at all ready to be open about quite yet but it's something that will make 2018 and possible 2019 the worst time in my life.
In the midst of something happening I stopped and thought about the drama, the fake, the noticed and the not and made the decision to disconnect from Facebook, Instagram, snap chat, some where along the way of blossoming into a social butterfly I've experienced, birth and loss and terrible news. I've realized that I have lost sight of myself, where I'm going in my life and who I truly am inside.
I'm also so very tired of the fake " I care about you, I'll be praying" those words are as shallow as a kids pool. Online that’s what you hear, constantly those who hide behind the screen conform to the actions of others. It’s always what the majority is doing instead of finding ways to be ourselves. I’ve alwats encouraged uniqueness but with the Boom of Social media face to face interactions are almost. Nonexistent. Take a look at the dating scene, online. What happened to the romantic comedies where girl meets guy by spilling her drink or being a klutz? Yeah that doesn’t happen. Being rude to one another is the new normal. So along the way of my disconnect from Facebook I am going to document more of the social interactions that I have. (Trust me with twins you have a lot).
It’s a shame really that terrifying news would cause someone to retract into a shell. But not surprising as people change they take in information and grow around it. I myself am trying to find the light through this darkness, even though the outcome is unavoidable I can make peace and appreciate the world around me alittle more. Okay, I’m not taking about the people cause there’s only a couple dozen that have the strict morals that I was raised with all the rest are loosy goosey. I’m talking about the beauty that’s still in the world, a helping hand, a smile, a random act of kindness and the beauty of Earth itself. Even though we’ve caused the climate change, greenhouse gases and global warming. The Earth is still the most beautiful place I know and when Emersed in nature someone can find the light that has been tucked away. Besides isn’t it good to approach things with an open, clear mind?
I’m goung to wrap this post up with alittle word to the wise:
There is so much bullshit in the world that it is important to weed out the truth, tell the truth and be openly honest with those around you. Lying and causing bullshit never ended well. Own up to your actions and take responsibility you will be more respected if you do.
Oh shit, I’m being sentimental 🤦🏻♀️
Thank you,
Maddie
