Have you thought about how quickly we can communicate judgment to others?
I love social media. It’s a useful tool for content distribution, but social media has proven to not be the best medium for spreading empathy.
We can share messages, photos, videos, and memes quickly via social networks, which means we can judge messages, people, and situations too quickly through these platforms. This speed of communication often provides no space for grace. And Lord knows that we all need to give and receive space for grace.
Social networks can be a dangerous terrain, but you can choose how to navigate it.
Move wisely, think more about others’ perspectives, take breaks from the screens, and truly value your in-person time with friends and family.
Until next time…
Much love,
Chris
