Lessons in life

Is it me or is the online virtual world something of a secondary life and it can be a circus sometimes?

It's true 😏

For example I'm challenging a thousand women purely based on name. That's ridiculously arbitrary.

There are resignations. Photos. Muting. Groups. Multiple accounts. People that pretend.

It's just mind bending and distorts reality.

Then there's falling in love. It's an amazing experience being here sometimes.

If you look at threads from a long time ago almost everyone has gone.

I think I'll likely stay around because I'm being my natural self. It's effortless for me.

I have absolute faith I mean well so don't come here for validation.

That means I can relax and the attacks are water off a ducks back for me.

Anyway Jane I didn't mean to bombard your thread.

I just get a train of thought sometimes. My train has fallen off a cliff now though!

Nice thread Jane. Whatever you do you do it beautifully. That's all you are.

Some are endlessly relentless though, downright vicious, nasty, abusive. I'd hate to be inside their heads.

Thnx, Tom.

I appreciate that Jane.

I agree it isn't healthy to engage such people. It's not necessary either fortunately.

On threads like yours people are polite or they leave. Mine is the same.

I'm not really talking about the crazies here though.

I'm saying the actual experience of living virtually is crazy and it takes time to learn how to cope here.

Of course the more immersed you are the greater the truth to that.

I think I'm beginning to get used to being here but I've made mistakes and I'm still not entirely sure that it's healthy for me that I am.

I suppose my point was basically that your thread was about lessons in our offline life but it's true that we can live virtually.

I was once so immersed here that I felt online life was replacing offline life as reality. Like something from a movie.

Anyway thank you for allowing me to wonder here.🌹
Avatar of LadyJane1
Yes, it can be seductive being here, sometimes to the detriment of the offline life, if you're not careful. 😏
Avatar of Monet1971
Nice word Seduce. Seductive.
Avatar of Monet1971
Anyway Jane I'll move on.

Haha, Alan! Nice to see you again!
Avatar of Monet1971
That made me laugh so much.

My lesson I have learned is Jane is absolutely beautiful.
