I Can't Live Without You

Checking Facebook is a near-daily habit for me. But it's a platform I abandon periodically to give my activism, my ego, my trolls, and my growing doubts about the basic human decency a rest.

My Activism - Writing for Their Story is Our Story

My Ego - See what I did?

My Trolls - I let him know

My doubts about human decency - WTHELL? Do people who regularly use the phrase "fake news"
ever really check their own sources for fake news?

I haven't been on Twitter since last September when my husband and I ran the Twitter-feed photos and content for Business Fights Poverty in NYC.

SnapChat is a near-never distraction for me.

The platform I'd miss the most is Instagram.  As a not-so-well-known Utahn, Brigham Young, once said, "This is the place."  This is where I find myself following: My daughters' fashion posts, pictures of my grandbaby, other activists observations, and Trevor Noah.  What more do I need to say?

Mission

I met the Apostle Paul at the door today
He had a black eye and spoke gratitude for every word I said
Every morsel of sustenance I offered
He wept openly
Great rolling tears
Thanked me for helping him fill his mission today
He hopes he has the strength to accomplish it
