Little collectives

Have you ever searched Facebook groups? There are groups for everything and for everyone.

It is nice being a part of a group, it is what makes us like little ants, so busy socializing that we don't spend a lot of quality one on one time, reflecting on the world around us. Under these circumstances, we are conditioning ourselves and others to be reactive and not proactive. Every time someone updates their page, do you have an email sent to you so you can read and react?

For some, it is the only way that they know how to touch the world gently. For others, it is a place to hide behind a username and rage against the meek. There are groups that aspire to touch the soul of humanity, groups for the inane and insane. Blogs of poets and broken dreams and blogs that give you the colorful truth like peopleofwalmart.com

I would still like to see Bonnie Franklin in something new. How about Greg Evigan?
