Sir BUDDY: My sidekick and assistant |
In a meandering mood, without any particular destination in mind, online, of course. Definitely, with some great mood selections from my really cool playlists [ I say myself attesting to the many hours I categorized my iTunes music library in a mood setting and that means both from where I physically am to where I am continually striving for better moods.
When one is struggling with depression, it means that they are likely grasping for safety nets of positive inspiration or motivation. Giving back. Giving what one knows or has sharing honest advice based on one's own unique perspective in whatever that may represent: as a person (wife, mother, friend, daughter, sister, aunt, outlaw or in-law I may be.

I've discovered a new identity emerging from the wisp and whoosh of inspiration that glimmers across one's screen. Maybe I've been hovering in a lot of different areas, appearing scattered, however, there is still consistency from my original vision/mission statement: "To help others go from average to REMARKABLE". I see that slogan here and there. Maybe I can do that creatively, who knows.
But wandering around, I saw posts and what felt like a flurry of activity from FACEBOOK ~ wow, who's radar did I get on now? Or is the merge between KRED and EMPIRE really trying to outdo the other battle of supremacy on leading edge Artificial Intelligence by throwing more and more things across your computer screen, daring you to click on what they've carefully selected you to view.
I hope it doesn't mean that we're closer to a Brave New World (was that the one I read in Grade 12 English about mind control, big brother?) ~ will have to fact check. My growing list of fact checking is getting annoying. I'd rather write than check facts, something that I would spend hours doing when I first began blogging as optioneerJM seven years ago.
I'm amazed at the craftiness of Facebook tempting me with MEMORIES and growing that part of AI which is another way of saying Automated Internet .... what you do, where you click, how often you click is being captured for your entertainment or knowledge value, which ever your behavior predicts that you have a tendency to go to or click on.
Regardless, I firmly plan my crown upon my head as the official new dear abby of online. Why? It's fun and it seems to help people and more questions keep coming for me to answer with more people viewing my answers daily. Although sales was my first forage on to the social media spectrum, social media certainly follow in a natural graduation. Now I am being invited to try products and be beta first responders/testers. It's all very cool. However, nothing I do online makes any money. The pathetic truth that it is.
My gauntlet is tossed. I challenge 2018 to bring me compensation so that I can continue to create: both painted images or written thought. Well enough to quit a full time job since it requires around the clock, if not attention, connected. If I get a little more honest by evaluating my own numbers (I gush at the thought to play around with them) ............ if Dear Abby it is, then voila a Queen of Advice can be born.
I will be re-posting on my other blogs. The goal is to create images that portray the mood or character of my blog, then create a page that it all blends and compliments each other. That is a big TO DO/GET'R'DONE for 2018 I don't know what does? Suggestions welcome.
Nevertheless or irregardless as his highness would say (as crowned from the Hunkster Hubster to His Highness or HH starting in the countdown to 2018.) The following advice has gotten traction on Quora.
Whatayaknow
Is what you know. You know what you know. You answer with your best face forward with integrity and honesty to strengthen your resolve: questions posed by anyone and everyone, then voted by anyone, and the tricksters or smartsters at Quora are putting more answers forward to you answer. So much so, you can start to distinguish the ones from genuine users with profiles and others suggested by Quora. Quora is telling me what answers and how I answer some questions is well received, therefore, they are now padding my ANSWERS banner with a sprinkling or mixture of both.
Here is an example on the traction and reaction from 23 hours ago:
