So, I've deleted my Facebook account. I used to have an obsession with FB, I had the app on my phone, and I would check all my friends status' every chance I got. I would all day be thinking of something clever, or dramatic to say to my FB community. And then, I felt as if my little world was being encroached upon. Someone who could of cared less all of a sudden cared a little too much. Everything I said or did was being watched. And I hated that feeling.
SO, I decided to DELETE my account. at first it was hard. I would reach for my phone every few minuets to check status updates. I'd be thinking about how I wanted to tell the world I was in line at Starbucks again, even though I swore I was quitting. But after a few days, it got easier (its only been 4 days as of this post). Its kinda nice to not be a slave to it. I have so much more time to ponder the real things in life. I have more time to spend with the ones I care about. I'm not always worried about checking to see if someone commented on something funny I said. Or if everyone loved the pictures I posted of the cutest 2 year old to ever walk the earth!
It just doesn't matter anymore. There is something sort of freeing in that. After I deleted my Facebook, I decided to delete my Blackberry Messenger Account as well. I kinda like being "out of reach" "disconnected" I almost feel like getting a basic phone that can only be used for calls and text messaging! and simplifying my life even further... but, lets not go too far so fast... baby steps! its all about baby steps!
