It's been a year (almost) since I've posted here. Not without good reason, might I add. Virtual diaries are hardly what I'd consider a good time. I might as well be talking to myself. Given that I do on occasion, I don't see a reason why a good stream-of-consciousness writing isn't somewhat therapeutic. That said, here are some additional ramblings.
Today is the day that I [finally] created my Facebook profile page. To be honest, it is one of the few times I've subsided to peer pressure. I normally dance to the beat of my own drums, but something in me today, and 15 spare minutes needed to occupy Monday at work boredom, made me do it. Also, I was pressured by my Mommie (and dear) friend Kathy. Kathy can also be thanked for my MySpace page. Again, if not for her, the world would be at a complete loss.
It wasn't hard to be honest. I thought I'd be FORCED to write about my "favorite things" or "what I'm reading" or some such garbage. I do love to read, don't get me wrong. However, I like that to be a personal thing and not a qualifier on whether you should be my friend. In fact, where's the mystery anymore. We put ourselves out in the "blogosphere" to make friends that would otherwise not be our friends? No. We actually do it to keep the friends we have.
I know folks all over. I know alot of people. Not all are on Facebook, but not all were on any of the other profile creators out there. I have been able to connect with folks from my past. Many from different times of my past. All of which cross my mind from time to time as folks I care about and wish the best for. It warms my heart to see the people I knew and to have them see me. That connection never goes away and who knows what more there is to find.
I was reluctant, but pleasantly surprised at the results. Yes, my friend, you were right.
Thank you.
