So well said, Hive account@anibas. It is an interesting phenomena this thing we call social media, which is in essence sticking our head in this box called a computer and trying to connect with others doing the same thing. Imagine how it would be to attempt to describe this strange thing we do to ourselves back in say the 80's or even the 90's, when the internet was just starting to take off. I think it would sound like ETs had invaded our world and taken over... LOL

I love the way you ended it with saying,

"Joining people is a choice, it means wanting exchange - real and meaningful exchange - or else it is death, and I don't have time for death right now.

There is life to be lived!"

I totally agree. Thus, I spend less and less time on Steemit and actually found your post through my Minds account where you also posted. Thanks for sharing it, as it does make me really think about this almost addiction so many of us have and why that may be.
