I for one participate in small doses.

- I rarely text on my phone (I feel you miss substance and context that you would otherwise get by actually talking to the person you are communicating with)
- I do not Twitter, Instagram, etc as I find the quick-short form posts rather annoyingly lacking in the full story
- I Facebook rather sparingly. I also limit my friends and contacts to those I only know personally in real life (I feel I just don't trust people out there, this way is safer, I find having social media friends I don't know an invitation for problems I don't need in my life)
- Messenger? Again only those I actually know. I live 2 1/2hrs from my nearest friend so use the app frequently
- email? This is my main contact and form of communication. I start each morning off writing a series of emails to a select handful of aquaintances.
- if I must use social media, I do so primarily with other women. Yeah I may be unusual here but I just feel it is wrong to use a man who isn't my significant other as a confidant. If I do contact a man other than my partner, I am open about having done so.

As for Psyh Central, yes I sepend a lot of time on here - probably more than I should. It is my voice and outlet. It is where I feel some comradery. But I am careful not to use it as a form of social communication. Again that is the role my common law husband takes.

So yeah, I am pretty strict with myself. I realise not everyone has the same views as I but you would never get me engaged in an on line relationship. I just don't get doing so.

How does this pertain to Spirituality? I am not sure. I am quite spiritual yet not religious. I don't experience the comradery that comes with organised religion. I have my reasons - which could be applied to the list above.
