I’m back. And Just Like That

It’s sneaky really. 

The FB break-up, well, it’s essentially over.  I could go in to detail about why and when, but at the end of the day, perhaps it’s just not that important.  I will say, I learned a lot when I was just gone gone.

There is life outside of social media. 

I don’t like Instagram like I like FB.  I miss seeing what’s for dinner.  I don’t miss seeing political rhetoric.  I missed keeping up with my alumni association.  I don’t miss take this quiz type of stuff.

I like my connections with my coworkers, clients, and friends.  I love the connections I am able to maintain with Aurora Central students.  And I am saddened to learn of the passing of one of my classmates as well as the passing of a former student of Aurora Central, a senior in Maine, now, both of which are gone too soon.

I still love baby sloth pictures and cute puppy photos.  I love connecting with new friends on this social media thing…. and I am still cleaning up my feed to be free of political nonsense, on both sides of the spectrum.  I’m still “unfollowing” those who use social media as their bully pulpit.

And just like that…

I can accept while there are so many things about social media that I just can’t abide, there are far more things I can.  Friends, Family, Interests, and Connections.  Things that matter.
