Social Media Or Not

Posted on by | 27 Comments

I am a very private person. I guess it is my personality. I was born like it. In addition, I believe the “bringing up” factor counts since my father was a lawyer/agent so we were taught (indirectly) not to be too trusting with the surroundings, with people/strangers. Be more vigilant and careful especially growing up in the Philippines.

I deactivated my Facebook account because I felt it was too much, too social. In fairness, Facebook helps you quickly reach out to anyone since a lot of people are practically using it. Anyway I survived not using it for more than a year now and I felt happier.

Honestly, I was hesitant putting up personal photos here or even my real name. However, I thought that if people want to truly see and feel my messages or my sincerity, there should be honesty. Some personal touch.  So I decided to put my name on it. Added my photo on the profile. On the 8th month of actively blogging, I posted a personal photo. Hooray!

I know that there are advantages and disadvantages of using social media. I am hesitant but at the back of my head I am thinking that if you really want to connect to people, you have to share a part of you (while still being careful, while still protecting your privacy).

I only have WordPress and Instagram to connect to you. I am already happy with these 2. You can add me up if you are using Instagram! khris_79!

Have a great week guys!!!!

Thoughts On WordPress 2

Posted on by | 18 Comments

I was imagining the site is crashing or there is a glitch.  Then do we lose all the written memories of our journey? Does WordPress secure and back up all the blog sites somewhere? Will our posts be read by future generations?!  Is there a feature where every blog we post automatically gets sent to our personal email address just to have a back up?

Hoping to get a feedback or suggestion. I was thinking of copying and pasting all my posts so I can have my own copy. I just thought of this now. It means I have to go back in November.
