After wanting to leave Facebook for so long, I have finally deactivated my account. I hope I can stay off it.
Facebook is a social place and in as much as it brings friends together and let's them know what the other is up to, it has depressed me more than it has given any joy.
It has become a competing place, to show up how successful we are, to brag (that's the word)! To brag about our successes, brag about our knowledge of the bible, brag about our families.
It works for other people, but for me it has been a complete let down. I cannot handle the 'friend ratrace', I cannot handle being ignored by friends, I cannot handle being left out, I cannot handle feeling like a failure.
It was nice while it lasted, but I am ready for that long overdue facebook fast.
