Social network butterfly effect
I found this on another network and thought it was worth a post...
The next time you sit down for “just five minutes” in a social network, make a point to lift up another person. You don’t need to attempt profound conversations on deep subjects at every turn. Just try to stay open to the signals we all give when discouragement, loneliness, and fatigue set in.
Think about it as you jump on The Fire Garden from time to time, even if it is as simple as leaving a complete stranger a "happy birthday" message, or welcoming a new user to the site. Small things in your life, have the potential to have a monumental impact for somebody else. I think few people would not trade 10 seconds of a minute to positively impact the entire day of somebody else.
Has a stranger brightened your day today?
