Facebook has unlocked a rare look into everyone’s thoughts. People can be very transparent with their feelings. This has enabled the world to feel justified to pooh pooh on and judge each other. Not exactly setting people up to thrive or flourish. Social media is a public forum, people gave up the newspaper to read peoples dirt and roll around in it. On the same token people are getting all offended when others disagree on public statements. It really is quite a never ending circle.

Drama is infinite! In a last email from my father, he sent me a lessons in life column he had sent to him. One of the statements was, “it is none of your business what other people think of you.” I mean really why do you care? If you are your best self and strive to be better everyday, if you are always trying to be a better version of yourself, that is all you can do. If not, well that is on you and you will be called on it. No one is perfect, no one is absolutely right, no one is without faults. You do not know everthing. No matter what you know, you are not in someone else’s shoes. You have not partaken in their journey. Your beliefs are yours, whether they are right or wrong.

Assumptions do not solve world mysteries. Tone can not be detected in the written word. Mood can not be noted on a faceless note or post. You can play Ring around the Rosie all day with words. You want to ask..ask. You need to know..talk. Please talk, more people need to talk, without the screen, talk.
