Facebook

At the end of the month I am deleting my Facebook account. Reason is it actually hit me when the person who was nasty to me wanted to be my friend and I felt guilty about not adding her. Then I started to think, well how many of these friends have actually spoken to me in person the last month, 6 out of 56 and two of them are my sister and niece. Some people have requested me to be their friend and have not actually written anything to me or my wall. Or messages like "what you doing" "how they hanging" like they never read or follow my profile. When I took a break from blogspot I really missed it but Ive been weaning myself of Facebook for a month or so and I don't really miss Facebook. Its all been a bit unsettling and I have just finished this book which has gotten my feet back on the ground. "Thanks to technology we've suddenly got more of everything than we can ever use, enjoy or afford. That doesn't stop us from striving though, and its making us sick, tired, overweight, angry and in debt. It burns up our personal ecologies and the planet's ecology too." I'm so hearing this and making baby steps to limit my time in technology.
