Sometimes I find myself overly absorbed in the world of
so-called social media. In other words, I get trapped in the tentacles known as
Facebook.
It can seem to be a “waste” of time, but, on the evenings
when it I’m in need of a belly full of laughter, I can usually find it.
Sometimes, it’s the opposite need that’s fulfilled: a yearning to be touched in
the soul and just cry.
Social media is no substitute for face-to-face
interaction, but, in it’s own way, it enables us to filter what enters our
minds and hearts on the days we need that control.
Blogging was the beginning of the foray of making friends
online, whom one will most likely, never actually meet. Facebook is an
abbreviated, instant interaction along the same lines.
This past week, I found another connection that made my
day happier and, unexpectedly, the friend’s heart happy, too. And, isn’t that
what any friendship really is about?
The inspiration of the week: Cece's Window.
May your heart and soul be inspired this week and always!
I hear you about social media! It's incredible in how many ways it has enriched my life and continues to do so! I've met several of my met on line friends in person and plan to meet more in my travels. I've traded art, bought art, sold art with and to them. I've been inspired by many of these on line friends. I sometimes wonder what my life was like before all this happened.
ReplyDeleteYour birds gave me a start, as I took a photo recently that looks very much like your wonderful drawing!
Thank you, Lynn! I know I've seen how your circles have expanded and admire the work and the evident joy you've put into all of it!
