I’ve made the not-so-difficult decision to stay away from Facebook for Lent this year. So from March 1 until April 15, there will be no posting of daily readings or pictures I’ve taken. It will also be interesting to see how much extra time is freed up when I’m not constantly checking the news feed to see what everyone else is up to.
I’ve tried this a couple of times before, the latest being in 2010. Best I can remember, the first week or so was the most difficult….getting out of the habit, especially with my phone. But after a while, it didn’t seem to really make all that much difference. I’m expecting this time to be much the same.
I’ll devote my extra time to doing some soul-searching, as well as reading and writing. I’ll still be taking pictures and will be sharing those when I return on Easter Sunday. Perhaps I’ll even find some new interest that will more than adequately replace the time I spend on FB each day.
We’ll just have to see how it goes.
