I gave up Facebook for good

So as of late I have been teetering back and forth of deleting Facebook. Well after many deactivates and log outs....I gave Facebook the official middle finger today. I am just over ran with stress in my life. And when I get on Facebook it only adds to it. I have spent countless hours not actually interacting with anyone in real life. And I'm over it. I'm over the memes, I'm over watching men post about how women shouldn't dress a certain way so they aren't sexually harassed or assaulted. It's a disgusting place. Much like our world today. I ditched the photos I didn't even look back. I am more interested in real physical things in life these days and Facebook is junk. The people have turned to shit. All keyboard warriors ,dickwads, and Bros.
As an artist I tend to veer away from real connection to technology. I like my old fashioned way of doing art. And no I never plan to go digital. Because my art was meant to be seen with real brush strokes and layers. Without that, the 3D affect loses depth. Some of my art you truly couldn't view the same digitally. But i am glad to rid myself of this social media.
All it has done was stress me out raise my anger and upset me. Yes there are the memes that make me giggle the cat videos that warm my soul. But what is it really doing for me?
It literally feels like a weight off of my shoulders. No one has real encounters any more. And in the amount of time I spent not on Facebook or any social platform today, I spent those hours doing a deeper anatomy study. Today I learned in the artist world each individual structure to the human body.
I drew 5 different skulls and am learning alot of angles and placement of bones so that when drawing real figures I have a much deeper understanding of placement of muscles and depth. These are all things that I have always wanted to learn to do. I have always wanted to learn to draw people. Faces have always been a no for me, due to I am ocd and trying to get lips or a nose and eyes in their place is incredibly hard when you don't understand anything other than what you see with your own eyes.
I feel it is truly amazing the things we tend to do when we aren't kept trapped on a screen looking for likes or looking who liked something or at someone's shitty comments.
So here is a challenge....I want you to spend at least two hours when you normally would be on Facebook or a social site. And learn something. And share it with me. Take a step back find a passion and spend just a little bit of time on it. Be it reading or sculpting or learning how to change a tire..(I just learned how also) tell me about the things you've taken time for instead of staring at your phone or computer! Share a photo or a video or a poem you wrote. Literally anything! I want to see how many of you are truly motivated in life to do something different with your time.
Much love
