Social Media Sabbath

I took a break. Not a long break, but a small one. It was more than a break, I called it my Social Media Sabbath. I  was stuck in the tension of needing to be caught up in the lives of everyone, but also in the concern of the future. I needed to stop. I needed to respond to the present.

So for one week I may have been a little selfish. I needed authenticity. I needed to be transparent. And I needed a healthy break to be present in my own life, the lives of others and the reality of the world around me.

This past week has been filled with me being human. And in being human I needed to cry. I needed to laugh. I needed to be present with people who would allow me to be human. This may not seem like I was asking a lot, but sometimes I feel the burden of being human.

After this past week I am left saying thank you to those of you that challenge me to be human. Thank you for the embrace, the care and the acceptance of my ridiculousness.
