Why I'm not in Facebook



All my life, I have never entered a Bar. Sounds naive? yeah. lol. But yes, I haven't and I'm not planning to enter any. I just don't feel like there's a big purpose in visiting one. Not so wise to use time to do so. Well it sounds really odd but that's me. Ever since, I am not very sociable and not into social places until I became a Christian. However, my faith and my openness to new friendship did not give me the hook to find friends in Bars. lol. It's just not me.

Anyway, if cyberspace is like the whole world in the computer, the best "bar" to enter perhaps will be Facebook. And speaking of that, when people ask me "hey add me in facebook.. what's your email.." , my answer is just: "Sorry I dont have facebook", and their reaction is just a questioning face, like the first time they encounter a person who has no facebook. It sounds odd again. I used to have one but months ago, I decided to just get out. My purpose was pure and good when I entered facebook, because I thought it was good. I left because I just can't stand a lot of things. I have nothing against facebook. It's just that, the social network users can be really mind bogging. lol. I feel that it was just a waste of time to mingle within a fake world where a lot of people are tempted to be fake too. You will not realize sometimes, you are becoming fake too. :(

Here are some reasons why I'm not in Facebook (As if everyone cares haha, just sharing anyway) :

1. People just show off their best pictures, some don't really look exactly like their profile pictures or cover page, lol

2. Some show off they have the latest gadgets and stuffs while others become envious of what their neighbors have, and the next day they want the same thing.

3. Users show off that they've got the best wife, husband, boyfriend, girlfriend, relationship, family party, circle of friends, and everything

4. Posers sometimes are just annoying haha. Im laughing while writing this, I can still imagine people taking their pictures in front of the mirror, solo :))

5. FB is like a fairytale or a fantasy island, some impossible things just turn to be possible

6. People hurt you by their status or pictures, banners, likes, dislikes, adds, and more.


Anyhow, there are many courageous people who want to stay to encourage and change the facebook world into something ideal like it's possible to have peace and love in the cyberworld.

Like the world, facebook is something that can grab or snatch you from the hands of God. It's ok if you browse it in a minute per day, but if it's longer than an hour and for worse, all day, it can be an addiction, and facebook will win and own your soul, and you will never know it. It's a world of pretentions and you may just get deceived.

Facebook is not reality. Think about it.

It has been a tiring season for me but hey, Satan still doesn't get the point, I am not chained in all these because I am just in chained with the unchainable Jesus!

Just take it one step at a time. There are rainy days but there are also sunny days! For whatever season, God is still God. He doesn't change. And He is forever with us. :)
