Facebook

Ok, so really, I never anticipated this day would come, but it did. On saturday I did something I am not sure I can reverse(well actually, I suppose I can). I joined Facebook. After years of singlehood, I had decided that I simple did not want to be a part of social networking internet sites. I swore them off even if they were not linked to dating. I don't regret this decision, as it was a keen part of the transformational changes that came while discovering and deepening my yoga practice. One of my desires was to lead a life of simplicity. In NYC with the chaos of daily living and interacting with many people this worked out well.

Then I moved to Utah. Life is slightly more isolating the NYC, you don't walk out on the subway every day and see thousands of people before you
 even get to work, you don't run into neighbors walking home, or at the yoga studio. I am still blessed to see many people each week through teaching, farmers market, etc, but I have realized that Facebook and/or Blogging is a connection to those that have shaped who I am today, my dear friends. On Saturday I set up the account with the motivation to become a fan of Connie's Cookies ( a page my husband set up). Once I did that, I suppose it makes sense to reconnect with all those friends from NYC and all over I haven't seen for some time. I am content for now, but I know I must place controls on it to not become a time sucker!

Check out Connie's Cookies on Facebook, become a fan! For the love of cookies, please!
