Janine, This really resonated with me. Connection and community are two very strong words for 2025. I find myself needing a little more of both on occasion. I was a shy child like you and am still shy. The internet helps me to be social while feeling less awkward. Thank you so much for this very informative and helpful post.
Thanks for commenting, Pamela, it's nice to know that the Internet can connect 2 shy people in a way that feels good. 😊 I am grateful to have you in this community! 💜
I am also on FB and have been for a very long time. I have a friends all over the country now, a large community there and it is also how members of my family keep in touch. I stay for numerous reasons.
I was on FB for many years and still use messenger, but found I rarely saw anyone I knew in my feed so figured what's the point. I am glad you still find it useful.

Janine, the internet is good for a lot of things, unless we spend too much time on it and get burnt out! ;)
Amen. That's why I am only on Substack!

I have so many people who are still there. Most of my L.A. friends are there, so I can keep in touch with them too.
