Social Networking: What Am I Doing Here?
I was just visiting my Facebook and Twitter pages and it got me wondering, “What da hell am I doing here?”
That’s a ligitimate question.
With little time and all the work I have on my plate what compells me to return again and again to these and other social networking sites?
Granted, part of the draw is the marketing possiblities. After all my intention is to reach as many people as possible with the information I have to share.
I can’t help change lives if I can’t reach them.
But that is only part of it. There is something deeper. There are afterall thousands even millions of people visiting these sites daily with absolutely no marketing agenda what so ever.
Why?
Then I got to thinking about what I teach. We are all universally connected on a spiritual and energetic level. You and I are connected with every human being on the planet and yet most of us feel extemely disconeected the majority of the time; some to the point of depression.
It has been said that the internet has brought us all closer together… so I won’t repeat it. (Oops already did).
Hell you can get closer with people, a lot of people, as I did for years by cramming yourself into a New York City subway car during rush hour without ever feeling connected to a single person.
So it dawned on me that it’s the connection I am after. I want to touch in some way that man or women in Indonesia, Great Britain, Nebraska, and even New York. I want to feel that connection, not simply know it’s there.
And perhaps most importently I want to reconnect with those dear friends and acquaintances from all those lives I had in the past. It’s a tremendous thrill to visit my Facebook page to find that someone from my old biker of bodybuilding days has stopped by to say hi and share a memory.
And so I keep going back. I hope you’ll stop by and say “HEY!” It will make my next visit worth the trip.
