Here we are, away from Facebook for the first time in over a decade. Feeling free and ready to embrace this opportunity to publish what I want, as I like, fettered only by common decency. My own journal/scrapbook, precisely what I have been using FB for all those years, anyway...
A bit of free creativity at last!
And the same applies vice versa: Well, no more reading about everyone's woes and worries; I may still visit the Spiritual Awakening page to find beautiful images and words of wisdom. I crave internet viewing that only soothes and uplifts. I wish to surround myself with positivity only, hence the gradual reducing of my 'friends' list; too many moaners and groaners, really. When I feel ready to help others with their issues, then I may go back and face the virtual world again.
Right now is a time for down-to-earth hibernation, seclusion -not reclusion, more like a retreat. I look forward to a lengthy break. I know that it will be beneficial to my health, both physically and emotionally. I shall have so much more time on my hands to 'do something productive' and 'do a little bit of minding my own business' without interruptions from messages, notifications of more and more data being thrown at my brain. Demands of multi-tasking that drain me... I am going back to 2D thinking. Such a luxury to no longer be at the mercy of permanent connections who intrude on my peace of mind the minute I open my laptop... I breathe a sigh of relief! I am now grateful for the mediocrity of this platform which I relied on far too much for human contact. I crave non-contact, is that so much to ask?
Insolvency -new word learnt today; I have lived with this unnamed companion for years... She has taught me much; who to trust (very few), who to be grateful to (even fewer), what to be grateful for: Everything.
Là, tout n'est qu'ordre et beauté, luxe, calme et volupté.
Baudelaire
This is where I am.
Thank you.
