Do you ever fight loving the things you love? I do. All the time.

In this case I was taken back, to find too much of a good thing can of course be a good thing or sometimes, it can become a handicap. In my world, finding treasures in friends is something I have literally searched the world for. I have the forever kind of people that many dream of making if only, just once, in their entire life. I have friends in Italy, Ireland, England, China, Japan, Russia, Canada, Alaska, most states, and even within a mile away that I need to connect with. Yet, even more so, they need me; to be available for them, their excitements & their hardships.

Facebook keeps me up to date on relationships that for this season of my life I have to put on hold, & friends that are my souls anchor but our physical paths will probably never pass again. Most of all, I realize it gives me a way to be there for people that for the last 6 years of living overseas I could not have been there for any other way. Facebook is addicting because I can find the people that make my world so beautiful, so insane, and so colorful, all in one spot. I feel pretty silly that I thought giving up one of my biggest blessings was a good idea. I think, at least for now, I will stop fighting my love for this network that gives me a glimpse into my friends lives, as well as myself- a window where people can get a glimpse of mine….
