Unfollow

I have mentioned before my unhealthy relationship with social media. It's a major part of my day to day. It's a small window into people you know, people you rarely know & people that you used to know. 

I'm also convinced social media doesn't let you miss people, it gives a false sense of day to day interaction. That sometimes you even forget the distance & time that has gone by without real human connection. 

I'm all about posting selfies, sharing life events & giving everyone a personal look into things that matter to me. 

But... I've learned. Not everyone deserves a chance to have a look through that window. 

I am absolutely horrible at letting go & I've learned social media only makes that even harder. It keeps a visible string attachment to things & people you shouldn't be linked to anymore. Seeing things that effects your mood... 

So I've learned the power of unfollowing... It's my sense (even if false sense) of truly letting go. It's like quietly saying "you don't get the privilege of looking through my window anymore"... It matters to some people, to others, not too much... 

But thats also when you figure out who wants to be in your life. It's when you find out who was looking & wanted to truly see. 

I do this to gain power back. To choose the things I want around me. To decide who gets to look in. To cut that visible string of social media & figure out what other strings connect us...
