There comes a time when all things come to an end and one of those things for me might be facebook. FB has been there from the beginning when Alan was born and "status updates" were born right along with him. "Feeding Alan" was my post...and then as facebook became more advanced so did posts about my day. I then realized how the world could see your every pictures, every post and I decided to change all my settings.
Now the new timeline is coming without our say and it is pushing us into more privacy limits. All old posts will be available on "timeline" for random strangers to see "the story of your life". Not so sure I want my past so easily looked up with one click. And so it comes to mind maybe it is time to let go of the book, the entertainment that it provided my stay at home mom days is no longer needed as life demands increase. Yes it will be a sad goodbye because, heck its a yearbook of my life of the past 5 years, pictures, emotions, memories, friends come and gone but also goodbye temptation, goodbye jealousy of other lives, goodbye the world knowing what my life is about without having had talked to me in 5 years. And with that comes a sense of a freedom :)
