I don’t want this to sound like a post of privilege, though I realize it has the inherent danger of doing so.
I don’t even want this to be a long post.
I just want to say, for the sake of recording my truth(s), how much I enjoy spending time with people whose general life and world perspectives are similar to mine.
This doesn’t mean I’m unaware of the filter bubble. Nor does it mean I’m avoiding it. (Truthfully, I routinely keep some people in my Twitter and FB feeds who I totes disagree with for this very reason.)
What it does mean, though, is that I appreciate and enjoy the outright FUN and pleasure I have when I spend time with people who share my perspectives. This is natural and normal, I’m sure. I want to also clarify that it doesn’t mean we agree on every single thing in the whole ridiculous world, because honestly I don’t think that’s even possible. It just means that when I get to spend time with these special people, I have a really good time.
And I am grateful. And that is all.
