I'm not sure why my mind does things like this, but it does. It judges. See, by saying "my mind" judges, it would seem as though "I" don't actually judge, but my mind does. :wink That way, I don't have to be the bad guy.
Anyway, on Fa.ceboo.k, I'll notice sometimes that people will have hundreds of friends. How is that even possible?? How can they be that close with so many people? And online? Don't they have lives?
Well, I've been noticing in myself that my friendships seem to be all online. While I don't think it's unhealthy to have online friends, having ONLY online friends might be. I do have close relationships with some family members, but not any not-related-to-me people. So, I've decided that I will have friends. Presto!
No, no friends have materialized in front of me magically, but some will. I promise myself that some will. I plan to attend a P.TA meeting next month, and will hopefully meet some lovely folks there. In the meantime, I've been looking at my own friend list on fb, and seeing that there was room for some pruning. Hey, maybe this is a spring gardening itch that I've got going! Anyway, I've clipped a few branches back, hoping for some re-growth in real life.
And, I currently have just 99 friends on the wall.
