With all the angst in the FaceSpace world, Sara Jane found herself reeling. Words and sentiment were bandied about constantly: You whore! You slut. LOL. LMFAO. Friends friending – then un-friending at each perceived slight.

“I’m so lonely, but nobody must know.

I should update my status – EVERYONE must know.”

It was easier when she was just a blogger. Now people peeked into her every move. Inside her heart she could hear her mother tsk-ing and feel her shaking her finger in her face.

Child, you’ve certainly made a spectacle of yourself now, haven’t you?

Mother, please! It’s my life!

    So timely and accurate. I am still stunned by what some people feel they need to share… and I can add myself into that category on occasion.

  2. I love Facebook. And I hate it. But I won’t go into details why. That would be an essay of a comment. Captured well.

    Interesting how Mom is only partially right and so is Sarah Jane.
