Facebook “break” or “fast”

Last week, after the terror attacks in Paris while I was skimming my facebook timeline, I grew more and more distressed at all of the ugliness of this world and felt that it was time to take a break from facebook for the weekend.   On Monday morning I realized I hadn’t even really thought about fb (except for responding to the email notifications that I was getting for certain things).  Today I jumped on fb to just skim through posts and realized that it didn’t hold the same interest as it did last week.   For the past 4 days I’ve been reading, I’ve been cooking and baking, and most importantly I’ve been spending time with God and my family!     I can definitely say that I will be continuing my facebook fast/break with the exception of checking in here and there, once or twice a week. 
I have been doing something that I wish I did more of, and that is taking more pictures….so far just of food, but I’ve been taking more pictures and posting more on instagram.  That’s fun, and I’m able to cross post those photos to facebook and twitter which is nice.     And all of this means, that I will be blogging more as well!
