I wonder if other tweeps take time off from twitter to search themselves about their twitter experiences...I think it would be cool to interview other tweeps on this issue...for some you can find out how they feel about their tweeting by reading their sites or blogs...some are buzzing about it in their BBM or other chat/online spaces...this past week I listened to a blog radio show which mentioned some of this...but the cool thing is...for many of us, our feelings/dispositions are reflected in our tweets/DMs/blogs/chats/talkshows/etc...as I'm sure mine are also. I have tweeted day and night for months...many of my past blogs speak of my twitter experience, my growth in twitter, the reasons why I tweet the way I do etc...as does this one. When I first signed up for twitter, I read through the twitter philosophies and rules...philosophies and rules always strike me and stand out in my mind...I remember it said...follow people who are engaging and active...follow tweeps with whom you have similar interests with or enhance your twitter experience...
The people I follow/tweet enhance my twitter experience to a very large degree. There are many kinds people on twitter. There are some I follow/tweet because I would like to get to know better, there are some that I follow/tweet because they make me smile and laugh when they tweet ALWAYS, some because they teach me things- important things about life,some give me awesome stuff to tweet and/or great ideas for tweeting/blogging, there are a few because they have great/interesting causes, some just to see what it would be like if I followed/tweeted them, some so we could DM each other, a couple I followed/tweeted because they are adding to my experience of discovery, and there are some I follow/tweet because they are bold, shameless, intelligent and non-superficial...I have had many skype conversations with tweeps where we talked about why we do and dont follow or tweet/RT certain tweeps and not others... or we discussed our tweeting and following/follower styles...these conversations have been off the chain. The pool of responses is so diverse. It's encouraging to know how many tweeps are similarly like-minded and others offer a range of perspectives that stimulate my mind and give me something to think about.
One thing I've learned in life...when you are given something to think about...you have to take time out to sit and think about it, watch what people say and what they don't say...In life you have to keep your eyes/mind open at all times...be patient, wait for the truth...the truth isnt always about learning something about someone else...sometimes its learning a truth about yourself...in this thing called life, trust me you truly need to know both..."Don't [judge or] compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about." ~ unknown..." Sometimes people are placed in your life for you to teach them something, sometimes they are placed in your life so they can teach you a thing or two...and sometimes the teaching and learning is mutual..." The philosophy of the wisest man that ever existed, is mainly derived from the act of introspection." ~ William Godwin
