Facebook friends don't know me like my friends I physically spend time with. I can't make them know me well by sharing endless pictures and status updates. And that's okay. We aren't meant to be close to hundreds, or thousands of friends! Ultimately, seeking validation from that many people is an empty pursuit. I also have come to realize that there are some things I don't want to share on social media because they aren't special anymore when they aren't private. An inside joke ceases to be "inside" once it is published.Danahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06623090905513868932noreply@blogger.com
