farewell facebook

yes, today I deactivated my Facebook account. it feels good. I'm glad I did it. I should have done it sooner. it turns out deactivating is not the same as deleting. but it appears the same to anyone who might search for me. so it is just as good, for now.

some people seem to think it is drastic to quit facebook. but I haven't quit the internet or even social media. I use twitter and instagram a lot. I feel a greater sense of connection with people on twitter and instagram than I do with various ghosts from my past - the 'friends' who peopled my facebook.

through twitter and instagram I've found a comfy online social life of like minded people. other parents, vegans, hippie weirdos, artists and rebels mild to extreme. it's comfy.

bye facebook.
