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 :)))
