I've taken the past few weeks to get stress out of my life. One main trigger I find is FACEBOOK- I'm always on it. It takes time away from my kids, myself and in the long run my family time. I didn't realize how much it really, truly has affected me. My daily routine would consist of waking up, logging on and checking up on missed status updates of friends and pages I follow. As the day went along I was finding myself clicking FACEBOOK about every 5-10 minutes. I had really become addicted. YUCK! Why was I letting all of the drama, fantasy status updates, sad tortured animals, business mumbo jumbo reel me in and bother me. Ugh! Sickening to think it was feeding my daily attention and the end result of 'catching up' would just be more stress on my day/life!
I just want it gone out of my life! What, I talk to maybe a dozen of the people on my friends list out of 200+. Yes it's great to catch up with old high school classmates, but high school was a living HELL for me. I don't want it to be a crutch for me to feel that I have to make my life a certain way just because I see other people doing it. I want to just do it on my own. Family doesn't bother to communicate with me on there, so what the heck is it really for. Nothing. I've met a ton of new friends whom I will keep close and grow a better relationship with.
Time to get out and enjoy my life in real living color versus virtual hoopla!!
BYE BYE for now FACEBOOK, I will be checking in from time to time. I won't be staying for long.
