Think before you post.



I'm finding Social media is bit like reality tv sometimes....it relies on ratings but it's not real life! 
People get sucked in by the "what can I post to get the most likes" it becomes a focus an obsession

I'm not seeing much socializing these days just a whole lot of meaningless drivel & insubstantial post/photos 
Have we lost our basic communication skills, in our quest for likes or gaining internet validation? 
Wasn't social media created for the purpose of communicating? 

For the record I like reading/seeing what you have posted about your day & what you've been up to & No, I don't find it boring at all I enjoy it when you tell me what you had for lunch or you've had a run in with our wonderful public transport system, out with a friend or what you've been making or creating 
I'm interested in what you are doing, I'm interested in you

I'm not going to apologize for not wanting to see porn/nudes/semi nudes whatever in my news feed...there are other places to find that if I was of a mind to
It doesn't need to be on social media

No I'm not a prude or ignorant nor am I uncomfortable with the naked human body
Just time & place is all I'm saying & I don't think social media is it
Life is all about boundaries ones that are there & ones we create for ourselves 
Without them, society becomes chaos

Has me wondering who has actual substance these days.
