Don't apologize! :-)
Your quoted stuff was actually what I said, so I'll reply...
Yeah - social media is not something I care for. I see too many people
(my wife included) swipe - swipe - swipe away. Now that's fine if that's
what someone wants to do. Heck I'm 'swiping' through messages on echonets,
but it's much easier to avoid the drama here. :-)
When people use social media and it makes them feel bad because they see
what someone else portrays as life, it can cause FOMO. But being a
Christian means having joy in ALL things - not just what the world calls
good. :-)
Anyway - welcome! Communicate all you want!!!
