FIT@50 \ week 12
Social Media: Social
I’ve been asked why I post what I do to social media. It’s simple—to be social. The value is to operationalize the term “social.” It’s what you chose to present to the world. I have no agenda, or master plan—I just enjoy people.
It’s encouraging to know people who are connected through social media. I always try to meet them in person if possible. You’d be surprised how amazing some of them can be on the other side of the computer’s screen.
Talk about amazing – last week while at the hospital, so many folks knew Max from Facebook. It’s a blessing to see their faces light up and kind words accompany friendly gestures.
As a dad, it’s wonderful to see your son touch lives, even without an ability to verbalize his thoughts. That’s the true aspect of social media – being able to convey your message. Max communicates love and kindness through his full-face smiles and double thumbs up poses.
What message do you convey – virtually or in person? It’s your message to manage-make it count.
Do good,
Scott

Unfortunately my message, in person and related to work, has only gotten more cynical over the last 15 years. Ignorance is bliss. Sadly, that affects everything else. I have to fix that.
