Love not hate

I had thought that I wouldn't blog anymore, in fact I haven't blogged in years. I had been thinking of deleting my Facebook, twitter, Instagram and any other online forum. I was thinking along the lines of "what is the point?" All the in-your-face instant-constant opinions and I felt like taking my voice out of the medium. Why do we feel the need to post our lives on these forums in such a constant way? It was too much information, too much time spent looking at videos, tweeting, posting, etc. Then I postponed deleting my accounts, thinking I would just not post my personal life so much and keep my personal life, "personal". Another reason is my connection with some of my high school friends and even some family members are through Facebook only. I've also realized what a gift it, is to be able to express yourself in any medium. I feel as a mother, as a woman and as a ethnic human being that I need to speak up for what is right and what is true. Gi
