A New Beginning
Take a deep breath! Life is about to get a whole lot different... After deciding I truly wanted to make a change in my life, I realized I would need to start doing something more radical to change things. First on the list involved Facebook. I routinely checked facebook about 20 times per day, trying to see the latest deals as well as follow up on how my friends were doing. Without realizing it, I was constantly bombarding myself with ads and "buy me" links. First on the agenda today - hiding or "unliking" pages that encouraged my spending habits. I unliked those pages I knew I had subscribed to simply to find deals on things to spend money. I "hid" items that I truly liked (such as Oreo cookies), but that I no longer wanted solicitation from. The irony is that I hid everything in view, backed out of it and when I went back in a few more popped up. This just shows me once again how deeply entrenched I was. Praise God that I feel I'm finally getting some breathing room!
