Twitter and what I've learned on the site, so far

Well this is my initial blog, thanx to @BobbiBillard for guiding me to this ite, she is a favorite of mine to follow. You will get cynical and say yeah it's because she's excessively beautiful, but no that is not a complete view or reason. If you listen to her, really listen she is very intelligent and uses her being well-known for the purpose God created her for, to make this world a better place. She shares very relevant info, that can be used by anyone. so follow her and be amazed.

Onto what I have learned so far on twitter, it has been an interesting ride so far, yes a ride, I have learned that there are some really amazing people on there. Yes there are the haters, the ones who want to bring you and everyone around them down to their level in the mud. But the are those like @AlyssaMilano @EmilyOsment @CarinaK @adventuregirl @ BrittanyASnow @AshantiSDouglas @RyanAShecky @GDGOfficial and @ChrisTomlinBand that are there to counter the negativity with a positive life view, follow them, u will not be disappointed.

Continue the thoughts, there are the "fakes" and "posers" who as near as I can tell are on there to boost their egos and selves up. But, hey not going to hate on em, as TI says, "Live Your Life" and if that means living their life as someone else then let them, don't hate on them or talk bad about them, they will get caught on their own. don't make it your mission to out them, again, "Live Your Life."

I also learned that there are alot of diamonds in the rough, by this I mean, you never know who has amazing potential both as a friend and as a human. Don't write people off because of who they follow or what their background pic is. Or who they love, if it's @ddlovato or @serenagomez or the "Jo-Bros" then let them, it's their love. Learn what you can from them and apply accordingly. Similarly there are some amazingly wise people I follow that speak to our spirit, such as @RickWarren , pastor of Saddleback church, @JohnPiper an amazing pastor and writer, and my pastor @GreggMatte the pastor of Houston's First Baptist Church.

Where this going, is anyone's guess. I guess right now, is to say there is alot to twitter, more than seeing how many followers we can accumalate or get following us, it's a social network, to be used accordingly, reach out, give the shoutout to who you like and want others to learn about, and it's an opportunity to meet people all over the world, use ur 140 characters wisely, they can have a life-changing affect on those who are listening. Have fun tweeting, it's as much as you put into your updates.
