I know that it has taken me a bit to get to the positive
aspects of social media. I have been
anxious to talk about this part of it.
Through the use of social media re-connections to long lost friends has
been possible. Family events when family
has been far away have been sharable.
Much of what I would miss is available right at my desk.
The benefits of these venues have enriched my life in
excellent ways. I still find friends
that were relegated to the past with little hope of recovering them. I am able to plan a gathering with very
little fuss on the invitation side. Even
friends I do not get to see often are able to share their interests, life
events, and needs no matter where they are.
What I must assure is that this readily available
information does not make me callous or complacent. I am still accountable for what I know and what
I am given. I must assure that I do not
allow the constant social news feed to keep me from seeing the needs of those
doing the posting. I must not get sucked
in to things that are none of my concern.
I must use all that I take in as fodder for my prayer and care of
others.
I am thankful for this modern venue. I am better off for it. I will continue to use it to keep up with
those I love. I will also assure that I
do not use it to hurt of disrespect anyone.
For those of you who know me and have lost track; I am right here
waiting to hear from you. The call, after all is to community.
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn

who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a home
owner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure store."
