RE: Make Memories, or Be Present?

I blather on here

Not blather. When I write a post like this, kind of reflective and personal, I wonder if anyone will 'get it'. Thank you for responding to it in such a personal way.

It's funny about our electronic connection to the world. I don't do the usual social media...Facebook, Meta, whatever. This is my social media and I don't consider it that. I regard Hive almost the way people regarded note-writing in the 19th century. Back then, they'd send notes back and forth with messengers. Make arrangements for dinner, etc.

Hive for me has that same utility. I'm speaking to you. It's a social engagement but not social media.

I'm no good with people. I have no people skills. Feel awkward and ill at ease. Hive, the Internet, is a gift for someone like me. I have my life, here at home, and then I have my 'connections', mostly through Hive.

Heavens, if something happens to Hive I will be very upset :)))

Sort:  

I feel similarly about Hive. Meaningful conversations, not mere repetition of slogans and the things we are 'supposed' to believe, say or do. Those spaces I do not do well in, they all sicken me. Who needs that?! Talk about not having people skills, I have no social media skills, and I don't want any.

Hive will always be here, isn't that what a blockchain is? There will likely always be a front end we can use to access it, as long as the internet is working.

That's a really nice thought 🌹
