The internet is a curious place...people pouring out their lives for strangers to read, sharing their ups and downs, good things and bad, their love and hate...it's...well, it's a very strange place.

I don't use social media, (just Hive), and am careful with what I put there.

People can and do interpret the information I share in any way they like but their perception or interpretation may be nowhere near the facts and that's how it should be because my life is private. I communicate with a few people on Hive directly, a select few whom I value a like a lot and those people know a lot more about me, who I am, what I stand for, my personal history and all - There's a certain trust I've placed in them that that information won't go any further and they place that same trust in me with their own information. It's nice and has deepened my experience on Hive.

I get curious about others at times though, however am a little reluctant to publicly ask questions as I don't want to place them in awkward positions but I'm curious nonetheless as I know others are in return. People hide behind their perception of anonymity a lot here on Hive but on other platforms seem ok with blasting all their personal stuff to the world (which is weird to me) but that doesn't stop their own curiosity about others or other people's about them...so I figured I'd put this post out there for those who are curious and feel like asking me a question.

Ask or don't

Ask me anything you like in the comments below, no topics are out of bounds, although (of course) my answers will take into consideration my desire for a degree of privacy and common sense because I'm not an idiot. I'll answer as openly and honestly as I feel comfortable.
