Less Is Better In a Social World

social-networkingToday I created an exclusive friends list of people on Facebook I feel share my values and beliefs. Sometimes wide spread posts can create a hostile environment even among friends who really feel its necessary to assert in a heavy handed way their own agenda. Less is better in some cases. Sometimes you don’t want to have to defend your opinion with others, you just want affirmation. Social media can be a very great platform of expression and sharing, sometimes it can be a place that tears your soul apart. To make it a better place for me I shrunk my circle and I hope to be happier for it. Now this is in no way to slight others who differ from me but I just wanna be myself less filtered. You get what I am saying.

I enjoy looking at a blogs older posts. It is as important as the current posts. A person has a story that has a beginning and a blog is no different. So if you see a bunch of older posts with some unexpected likes that is why. I don’t mind fellow bloggers looking at my older posts. Go for it take a look back.
