I'm thinking about going through my sometimes needed mind-cleanse. By that I go on social sabbatical. Previously I'd take a week or two and isolate myself from social activities just to take stock and make sure I'm centered and where I want to be in my life without the distraction of external noise. I'd done this periodically and returned rejuvenated, excited for another decade.
During this time I listen to only my own voice and evaluate whether I'm balanced or not.
I always like to think I'm keeping in constant balance but the past couple of months of irritations have made me question whether I am right now.
I did it in High School and again while at the Art Museum (work wife was PISSED!).
I find it's time to do this again but this era of social networks is more complex; I have much more to silence.
I may only keep journaling here because I've fallen off badly and since I'm counting on this as my record of life, I need to play catch up with work, trips, plans and everything in general.
So disabling accts will be a necessity to avoid temptation.
I'm wondering if a week will do.
