Wow. There has been good - meeting new friends, finding lots of people who share my interests, reconnecting with old friends, learning different perspectives, finding new opportunities.
There has been bad - defriendings, deletings, slipups, fights, injury. We learn how to use this tool for good. Sometimes the learning curve is steep.
On the whole, the good so outweighs the bad.
Technically, I was blogging before that, on Diaryland. It seems like only yesterday... trite as that sounds, I feel like I think of the Time of Blogging as "recent history". One fifth of my lifetime! One fifth of my lifetime I get to keep, in the form of scattered jotted memories and blurtings on this thingy. What would I have lost to my poor memory without it?
I'm better thanks to bloggin'. :)
