What I love about
Blogging vs. Social Media
I love Blogging vs. Social
because filters exist
I haven’t seen outright
personal attacks here
the bloggers I interact with are
supportive, kind, real,
and just plain nice.
Not saying that nice people
don’t exist on Social- they do
My true friends ARE wonderful!
However, my breaks from Social
are getting longer and longer
because I find myself using the
delete comment and
BLOCK buttons more and more.
Why?
Because people think they can-
and do say such venomous things.
There is really no reason
not to be kind because
everyone is struggling with
something
whether they’ve put it out there
for others to see or not.
My choice is to
Be Kind and
Just Say No to Bullshit!

I have never used any other platform except for my blog. With no desire to be with the social media crowd, I can write and share it with readers who want to see where the words will take them.

If it wasn’t for kids over seas. And can only talk to them through FB messenger. That I can do. I believe I would be off too. Very well said❤

Absolutely! I kept messenger, just don’t get on the fb profile anymore. Don’t miss the time-sucker at all!

One of the best decisions my wife and I ever made was to leave FB and all other Social. On the blog I have more control.

100% Facebook was rotting my soul (Instagram wasn’t much better) so I don’t miss either at *all*. I’m much more at peace without them. I can choose to live in a bubble to some extent, because I don’t need to see exactly how nasty people can be when there’s no personal responsibility/accountability taken or enforced.

Social media can be a good tool for those of us with very small businesses. Beyond that, it has caused me to see people differently and that can be a pretty harsh reality. I’m with you. Lean into kindness.
