While I appreciate social media for the amazing people Ive met and the the reconnections with friends and family from days past, as well as the business aspects, and so much more...it is the real, in-person connections that I love and crave. Nothing beats a hug. Nothing beats an eye-to-eye conversation. Nothing beats shared laughter. Why are we so addicted to reality TV and social media? Neither of which are particularly real or social in the traditional sense of those words. Yes, I know...increased dopamine levels, etc... Its like getting a fix - chemically and egotistically. Just remember, there are real people out there... Dinners to have. Wine to drink. Conversations to share. Giggles to spread. Embraces to experience. These, too, are good for you - chemically and egotistically. Log out. Turn off. Shut down. Refocus. Go be your authentic self. The real people in your live will appreciate YOU even more. And, yes, I see the irony of my sharing this on FB... How else could I get you to look and take notice???
