I agree ...I just stumbled on this post, Annabanana. I agree with the love/hate of media and tech... but I also run a business and live far from all family... so, my working solution is that I SCHEDULE an allotment of time to check in on friends, make updates (like tonight) and skim through the rest. It really keeps me accountable and I still get to "talk" via tech to my friends and loved ones who are away from me. Good thoughts, girl! Thanks for the post... even if I am a little late to the party here. :)apriltindallhttp://faceinfive.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-711884415602005468.post-2776531764426069382012-03-27T16:48:52.242-05:002012-03-27T16:48:52.242-05:00Well now you know I've always got something to...Well now you know I've always got something to say......<br /><br />I think Facebook, the Internet, iPhones, etc. all have a place in moderation. Yeah, there's that word again - moderation. And I like what Kelsey said - you have to choose what's right for you and your family.<br /><br />I think we lose a lot..a LOT...by communicating mainly/only through typewritten technology. If someone or something matters, why not just TALK?Then you get to see or hear pauses, inflection, caring - things you can't HEAR in a text message.<br /><br />I do love that I can get information on the Internet - I'm always asking "What did we do before the internet?" But I don't want it to be a controlling factor in my life.<br /><br />It's OKAY to not be available to the whole world every minute. We have to make ourselves available to be still with God, and with our loved ones.<br /><br />Glad you asked - ha!!!!<br /><br />Love Ya Bunches and do keep the Blogs coming :)<br /><br />Y'MamaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-711884415602005468.post-37119031872603615582012-03-26T13:54:46.124-05:002012-03-26T13:54:46.124-05:00I have blogged in the past and do not now. My blog...I have blogged in the past and do not now. My blog is private because I have not updated it in nearly a year. I also quit Facebook cold turkey two years ago in June for good. I missed the interaction with my plugged in friends for a while but really enjoy the peace of not having a Facebook anymore. It is SO time consuming. I enjoy reading blogs and spend too much time doing so and have been thinking about placing a limit on how long I can read blogs & PIN! After quitting Facebook, many of my friendships faded and I lost touch with a lot of people, but I feel as though you have to choose what's right for YOU and YOUR family & if that means losing touch with 200 FB friends so be it. Sounds harsh, but it's liberating! =)Kelseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02377441920136351854noreply@blogger.com
