For a while now I have advocated that one of the primary reasons for having a personal presence online is linked to your own wellbeing and development. I always return to my Two Gifts post from several years ago.
In these moments of madness in the world, I want to add third gift. This time it is not to the writer but rather to those that happen to read the words, as little or as many as they may be.
The third gift of having an online presence is also to share your thoughts and feelings with others and connect, because maybe, just maybe they are also feeling the same way and don’t know if they are alone in these thoughts or how far these thoughts reach.
The how far these thoughts reach is where the internet does something that other means of communication cannot.
