The Vultures of Facebook

Have you ever noticed that everyone is a vulture on Facebook?  I thought that Facebook was a social network to get in touch with people in your lives that you don't get to see anymore, and to catch up with good friends.  These days, it's nothing but a hole full of drama trying to suck you in and never letting go.  More people are there to bash one another back and forth than they are to be happy for the other.  Most people are full of envy and just don't want to see anyone else happy but themselves, so the best thing they can come up with is to dog them on site.  I know, I have no room to talk, for I too have fell victim to the malicious game of Facebook! I started letting FB control me instead of me controlling my FB.  It's pathetic really.  I found myself checking it everyday several times a day.  And for what? To check out the latest gossip of who was fighting with who that day.  I'm not saying that everyone's life should be full of rainbows and butterflies, because I know that people just have down right bad days... That's fine... Complain about your bad days, but stop trash talking other people... It's just a horrible habit that people start to fall under because their peers are doing it, and I am Exhibit A falling under the pressure of my peers.  So you want to know what I did? I deactivated my FB account!!! That's right, you read right!!!! I D.E.Activated the damn thing!  Just for a few days, until I can fully function a full day without it... I honestly think it's for the best... Those FBVultures are nothing but trouble! Let me tell you though, it's been hard! I've found myself numerous times already trying to go to my ap on my phone, but luckily it doesn't log me in automatically anymore, so that's a sign that says, "Hey,  you don't need to be on here." I'ts helped, but I admit I'm having a little withdrawals, and it's only been an hour or so.... But that's okay, that's what I need... I need to do a lot of "self reflecting" anyhow... I don't like the person I have become.... I'm not the feisty, hold nothing back, speak her mind kinda girl lately, and that's just not me... So I think this time off FB will help me find me again as well.  Drama free, and me again! That's what I'm looking for! And by the time I log back on to the ol' FB page, I'll be a new person, new positive person I should say!

In the mean time, look for more blogs! I plan on doing that a lot more, now that there's no distraction!

Thanks for tuning in!! -And remember, if FB has you down, just don't log in or delete it for a couple days, it wouldn't hurt to self reflect yourself either!!!
