I love Facebook. It's entertaining. It keeps me clued into what friends are doing. Facebook provides a fabulous tool with which to disseminate information, ideas and news.
But you know what kills it? The whiny people. The people who post about how tired they are or how terrible life is. The people who criticize our country or different cultures. The people who make fun of people.
Sure, I "hide" them. But the whole idea of this incredibly powerful tool being used to spread negative stuff is totally aggravating.
As a result, I'm complaining about it. Right now. In my own forum. Because energy is contagious. Whether it's positive or negative.
I'm tempted to delete this. Because if you know this blog, you know it's a not place for rants. But for discovery's sake, I think there is a valid question here.
What energy is rubbing off on you?

My daughter's happy little kid vibe is just what I need at the end of my work day and it's always contagious.
ReplyDeleteMidnight to six man
ReplyDeleteFor the first time from Jamaica
Dillinger and Leroy Smart
Delroy Wilson, your cool operator
Ken Boothe for UK pop reggae
With backing bands sound systems
And if they've got anything to say
There's many black ears here to listen
But it was Four Tops all night with encores from stage right
Charging from the bass knives to the treble
But onstage they ain't got no roots rock rebel
Onstage they ain't got no...roots rock rebel
Dress back jump back this is a bluebeat attack
'Cos it won't get you anywhere
Fooling with your guns
The British Army is waiting out there
An' it weighs fifteen hundred tons
White youth, black youth
Better find another solution
Why not phone up Robin Hood
And ask him for some wealth distribution
Punk rockers in the UK
They won't notice anyway
They're all too busy fighting
For a good place under the lighting
The new groups are not concerned
With what there is to be learned
They got Burton suits, ha you think it's funny
Turning rebellion into money
All over people changing their votes
Along with their overcoats
If Adolf Hitler flew in today
They'd send a limousine anyway
I'm the all night drug-prowling wolf
Who looks so sick in the sun
I'm the white man in the Palais
Just lookin' for fun
I'm only
Looking for fun
I agree with you. And it's always the same people who do complain and whine. I think they are attention whores. :) But luckily there's enough interesting, fun people on fb to make it worthwhile!
ReplyDeleteMy 23 yr old daughter has moved home while she finishes a 2nd major and does student teaching. I would be a hermit, but she talks me into going shopping, to the pool, to the park for a walk, out for lunch.
ReplyDelete(I'm going to look for you on facebook)
You have to block out the noise and negative energy is whatever your doing....I spend less time on fb and more time with my kids..
ReplyDeletePeaceful energy--my kids left for their first day of school!!!
ReplyDeleteAny negative, whiney, etc. people on my Facebook are deleted!! No point in having them around :P aha! I do like Facebook for communication though :)
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure what energy is rubbing off on me. Can my own rub off on me? lol. I'm super positive though, because I got a job!!! :) I know my positive energy has rubbed off on a few people already!
