So this may be off topic but I feel like I need to share. I am addicted to Facebook. Everyday I check Facebook more times than I can count. I feel like I am consumed by it. Last night I decided that I would be fasting from Facebook indefinitely. Today has been proven to be difficult. I know this sounds very silly but throughout the day I find myself thinking of status updates (For instance, I just had some tasty snacks that I bought yesterday, so I thought to myself, "Kristin 'Burnett' Mortensen just ate Jalapeno pepper appetizers and they were YUMMY!"). It is a compulsion! Facebook is getting in the way of daily tasks such as homeschooling. Thankfully, when I am not home I don't feel the need to check my notifications, however, I'm sure it would be different if I had a smart phone. Hopefully, I can find a happy median so that I can stay connected with friends and family but not be consumed by the compulsion to check it.
Sincerely,
Kristin

Facebook definitely has an unhealthy way of shaping the way one thinks. I bet this is how it is for most Facebook users and we don't even realize it.
ReplyDeleteI think you're right Christina. I didn't realize it until I made the decision to not go on at all. I wonder how many others caption their days like I found I do.
