Saying Goodbye

Dear Facebook,

We've been friends for 8 years now, and we've sure have had some good times together.

Because of you, we've been able to connect with old friends from years past and even make some new ones. We've been able to share in others' lives, to see and show first hand all of the intimate and important details of our lives. Meaningful things, you know, like those dazzling photos of last night's gourmet dinner, or how your really upset and angry but won't tell me why,  or my personal favorite,   30 consecutive selfies, in ridiculous poses showing nary a wrinkle or flaw, miraculously having not aged since high school, some  32 years ago....How we every lived without you.

So I'm sorry to say, my friend that we are saying goodbye. We just have to let you go, with all of your constraints on our precious time. And that goes for your cousins Instagram, Twitter, and Snapchat too.

Yours Truly.....

UPDATE: 

It's been a month since we've disconnected from our Social media buddies, and I can truly say, that it was painless, at least for me.  I no longer sit and compare my life, with others, which has done amazing things for me personally.By no longer being able to judge and compare myself with others, I found a bit of peace within myself. Most noticable though, is the amount of time, we now spent with each other. Instead of sitting in the same room together, both glued to our phones, we have time to talk, plan, laugh, and dream.

Now that's what I call living......
