• Naomi Wolf quote

  I think about getting off Facebook a lot lately.  It hits me that it is so superficial and my contact with friends 1:1 has ground to a halt.  I enjoyed the groups on facebook (which many people don’t even frequent), though I’m not as active in them anymore.  I guess I feel reassured by the political and spiritual content that gets shared on my newsfeed, though even that sometimes feels hollow. 

   

  But today, I was really struck by this quote.  I have heard of one of the titles by this author, but not read any of her work.  I’m going to now.
