It's ba...Monica, Thank you for commenting back. It's bananas I just now saw this post. I am going to have to really spend some time on blogger and learn a bit more about my comment section. I really dislike not being able to see where some lovely reader has spent time to comment on my posts and I just didn't ever see the comment in my section. I want my dear readers to know I value them and their time. I agree with you bout IG too. I did the same thing. I would have a really awesome post and want to write a longer blog post but could never find it. I suppose they weren't meant to be. I know all things are happening perfectly. I tend to wonder to if there are a larger majority of Pisces or empaths that have a harder time with social media/ instagram because we are deep people. hmmm.... thinking to myself. I am so happy that we reconnected Monica. I have no real life friends, only my online gals I comment to on blogs, so it's nice to correspond with other like minded soul such as yourself. We vibrate nicely, I feel...

Plus, my blog is mine, my content is mine and displayed at my heart's content (I don't like squares... everyone in the world has a gallery with the exact same format! Where's individuality?), and I also can FIND it again! Do you know how many times I look for a post of mine I know I've written and want to re- read, and cannot find it on IG? This does not provide a great service for sure to your readers, if that's what you want... I think most people (business owners) do it for marketing alone, and the vast majority of people is just addicted to it, and finds it difficult to detach themselves (even if they are aware it isn't good for them). Sounds silly, but I believe most people are not at all able to enjoy themselves without external inputs- like oh my gosh, I have all of this spare time and wonderful empty space, now what do I do of myself? :) Not judging, just joking a bit... that's why I really want to offer a great service to my readers, to show them that it's possible to live a different life. To be more at peace, happier, more content, even with the little things, and most importantly, finding our true Self and acting from there. Makes all the difference in a person's life! <br />Much love, and thanks for responding.<br />Monica xo<br />P.S. Happy belated birthday by the way!!!!

I believe that me being able to laser focus on one thing {my blog} and really put all my love and passion and creativity into one platform is the best for me as well. I think of my heroes that I adored {such as Tasha Tudor and Beatrix Potter} and I would think they positively wouldn't ever be on all the social media platforms. I am much happier now, and I am very placid and happy.

I can speak...So glad to see your reply! Thank you! <br />I can speak for myself only, but being an Empath and a HSP, Instagram is not at all a good place for me! I feel all the energies, and it's too fast- paced and loud a place to be. The "crowds", endless ads, self- promotion, fakeness, stories(I don't watch anyway but just their presence annoys me at the top of my screen), people who DM you and doing so cross your boundaries- well, I'm not at all OK with all of that. I used to love IG a few years ago before ads and influencers and stories and people who followed/unfollowed and stuff like that- now it's just not something I want in my life.<br />Much love,<br />Monica xoMonicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11541697451249535177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7941085752213489885.post-53513901912464310792019-02-21T09:24:58.160-08:002019-02-21T09:24:58.160-08:00Oh Monica, It is so good to hear from you. I am so...Oh Monica, It is so good to hear from you. I am so thrilled that you found me. Isn't it interesting that I was just thinking about you the other day, but I wasn't sure what your web address was. The LOA at it's finest. Thank you for the compliments on my blog, it is such a happy place of mine. My writing is thriving more each day, and I am so inwardly pleased about my success on ye olde blog. Congrats on your blog too. I went through and read all your posts. You're a fintastic writer, keep going. I tend to wonder if many pisces are not equipped mentally for instagram. Just an observation, as many of the fellow instagrammers that I was acquainted with have left instagram. We are all doing our best and finding our individual way and what a delight it is. Have a lovely day dear friend. You know you are only the second person to seek me out, so thank you so much that means the world to me. I love you peanut!Raquel Margaret Carterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09812612528662098774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7941085752213489885.post-71344812402010706952019-02-20T11:06:05.483-08:002019-02-20T11:06:05.483-08:00Just to say I appreciate you.It has been a while s...Just to say I appreciate you.It has been a while since we last communicated, so wanted to let you know I haven't forgotten you.<br />Love your new blog. I don't have the time to read all your posts and keep up, but I read here and there sometimes :)and I always find something aligned to my own current feelings/thoughts, etc. Of course! LOA at work! And of course I adore the personal approach.<br />I too have made the decision- quite a while ago- to stop stressing myself out with social media and devote myself to my blog. Social media is not my cup of tea at all! Still rebuilding my website after lots of technical issues (long story), but now I'm finished and am very happy with it.<br />Keep up the good job,<br />Love,<br />Monica xoxoMonicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11541697451249535177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7941085752213489885.post-73369168874898378462019-02-14T08:28:57.476-08:002019-02-14T08:28:57.476-08:00Oh my, That would be such a kind gesture to purcha...Oh my, That would be such a kind gesture to purchase my book.
