But as I think about this decision I realize that I had actually been thinking about it for some time. I spend a lot of my free time on Facebook and there are so many other things I could be doing than just scanning though the news-feed. I've decided I do not want to be a follower. I want to be a chooser, I want to look for those things that I am interested in - not that I couldn't search for those things on Facebook - but there is a world wide web of information out there both on the web and off. I want to live though my own experiences not though the pictures or status updates of someone else.
I may start using Google+, and I do have an account with them. But I don't want to get sucked into the social media circle like I have in the past. I have very limited posts there, but I don't expect to be spending much time on it, at least not at this time.
I will be checking in on Facebook on a daily basis for awhile yet. Mostly so that I can respond to my friends and let them know that they can still get in contact with me - it's not the end. I may even leave it active. We'll see.
Much Love
