Great Reason to Like Social Media

Do you have any friends you’ve never really met? At least, not in person?

One of my favorite attributes of social media is this:

There is strength in distance.

I don’t mean leverage or magnetic force or anything scientific like that.

I also don’t mean the way some people hide in the distance and anonymity of social media to be mean or to punch down. I have a feeling if you’re reading this, you aren’t like that.

I mean the relationships we can build thanks to social media like the platform you are using right now.

People we’ve never met

People we’ve only met once or twice

People on the other side of the planet

People at work we can get to know in a deeper way.

And don’t forget people we knew but never really got to know… even if we were in the same classroom with them every day for four years in high school or college.

I’m glad I know you now.

How about you? What do you like most about social media? How do the people you connect with make your life better?

See you back here tomorrow.

And thanks again.
