For 4 consecutive years (or more pa nga),during the lenten season I give up something I like dearly.
Sacrifice kyeme.
It started with rice, then coffee, then Facebook & Instagram then now, Instagram.
After giving up Facebook for almost a month, gave it up for good.
No, I did not delete my account but I just logged off the app permanently.
I still have the Facebook messenger though, kasi for communication yun. Aminin mo, mas madalas dun ang exchange of messages ng friends, officemates, kapamilya more than SMS or viber. Mas mabilis mag reply dun kaysa mag text ka pa.

Convenient kasi automatic, kung sino friend mo sa FB, ma-message mo agad. Makakausap mo agad. Madalas nga dun na nag send ng invites for events and parties di ba.
So why did I logged off FB?
After the lenten season, parang nawalan na ako ng gana. IG na lang ang active ako.
There are times na na-jijirits at na-aapektuhan ako sa posts or status or whatever it is sa FB community. Which was not healthy, alam kong may mali on my end pero I also know na pede naman siya ma-control. That’s when I decided to log off permanently na. Para kasing mali na ma-jirits ka on a post when it’s their page, their right to express and dapat wala kang pake. So di ba for my peace and para sa kapayapaan ng mundo, mag log out na lang ako.
Nag-log in na lang ako pag may friends or most of the time officemates na nagsasabing accept friend request or tag ng pictures.
I feel more at peace.
Kahit madalas huli ako s balita or hindi ako maka-relate sa mga usapan, madali naman maka-catch up kaysa yung daily may "jirits" feeling. hehehehe
Sabi ko nga, nagkakasala lang ako sa FB.
Most of my close friends know na pag wala na sila makitang post ko kay Anikka alam nilang on HIATUS ako sa IG.
Minsan may nagtatanong pa din at madaming NAGUGULAT.
Kahit paulit ulit, i explain na, meron akong APP meron pa din akong account. Hindi nga lang naka log in hindi nga lang active.
People may think Im anti-social, or parang pauso or what.
I dont CARE.
Like what I always say, To each is own.
