Quitting the Rat Race: Social Media, Internet Connections and Making the Best of a Less than Perfect Situation

I have been “on holiday” this month from writing and posting, as we are moving house as a family (and preparing our not-so-new house for ourselves).

Being out of the loop has given me time to think. I’ve decided to make my words count and am eliminating most of my images from my posts. As I do this task, I also consider how I can best serve others in a meaningful way … I still write but I want to lead the pack rather than be part of it. In that, I want to change how I relate on the world stage.

This is a transitional moment. As Facebook tries to mend it’s ways vis a vis data protection, as Twitter and other giants are dealing with their business challenges, I want to do things differently. I don’t know how this is going to look but I’m simply thinking about it!

How about you?
