At this rate my next post will be in early October…
I’m going to use a challenge from my friend Liz Strauss to jump start my blogging. I’ve been focusing a lot of my energy on getting The Community Roundtable up and running, but I find writing on my own is a great outlet, one that I need to feed more regularly.
So here goes, my 25 words of social media wisdom…
Be nice. Say please. Be generous. Take time to teach others what you know and let them show you what they know. Say thank you.
These might seem like common sense, and they are. You’d be surprised how we sometimes forget that social media is not that different from real life. Perhaps it is real life?
P.S. My 25 words came straight from my 5 and 7 year old daughters. I asked them what they’d learned about life so far and what they think makes a good friend. Pretty good advice I’d say.
What would you add?

How did I miss this post? I love this pick, especially because the people I’m with in the post are some of my faves!
Great pearls of wisdom from your girls. It’s amazing how sometimes the simplest answers are often the best. I forgot that all too often in life.
Best,

I think that your girls said it best – despite your best efforts, they are being raised well! ;-)
