Frens,
TLDR: To have a phone/Zoom call with me/others and break free from the chains of the sterility & disconnectedness of internet message boards. To form REAL human friendships with like-minded pedes.
As we all know society, culture, and Satan want us divided. Not only that, they want us isolated in our own living spaces communicating only via texting, chat/message boards, DM’s, etc. According to their plan, the more we stay isolated away from each other, and rely, on our sterile internet communication methods the better.
God, on the other hand, wants the opposite for us. He wants us in real human community with one another. Talking, not typing. Seeing faces with mouths move. Hearing voices and noting inflection and energy level.
I am struggling right now. I feel alone and sad. I cannot continue to stay in a vacuum of anonymity and black letters with white backgrounds. I need to talk to some fellow pedes. I need that real human interaction that God intended. I don’t have a single REAL friend who is awake like we are. I have hundreds of GAW “friends,” just like I have thousands of FB “friends.” It’s not reality. It’s keeping me down and and it’s keeping our movement down. So many people in our society are suffering with depression and loneliness even though we are so “connected” via devices. This isn’t real connection. It’s surface level only. I have tried to connect with frens on here before but it is always one excuse or the other as to why someone doesn’t like Zoom or like phone calls.
Now, some of you may be afraid of me/others being unauthentic & posing as frens but being the opposite. Some of you find comfort in the safe bubble of anonymity. I get it. But sometimes we need to break through our comfort zone to experience truly great things in life.
Here is my challenge to you: I am willing to facilitate a bi-weekly Zoom/phone conversation with any and all pedes who are tired of the culturally influenced world of internet-only communication. If any one would like to be brave, and take a risk , and go out on a limb by building relationships with one another then let me know. Society, the world, the sheep all stick to internet comms. We should not copy them.
Anyone who is interested in getting to know me/others on a real level please let me know. I can’t keep going through everyday knowing what we know and not having ANYONE to actually talk to about it. I’m tired of typing and reading. I need more. I need what God designed for us: true human commune.
If you want to be a part of a bi-weekly Zoom/phone meetup let me know. Hopefully we will all get to know each other much better and build real friendships because of it.
God bless.
Hi, well, I’m surprised you haven’t got more people responding to this. Maybe it got lost in the shuffle. My guess is that a lot of people here either like the anonymity or are just too busy. However, I will be happy to set something up. I recommend you repost your original message or something similar and see if you can get a few more folks. Also, try Facebook and other social media places to see if anyone might want to chat on zoom.
For us, once every couple of weeks would work if we could get a group going. The tricky part might be time zones. We are in California, Pacific Time zone. Where are you?I was thinking a Friday afternoon or evening for an hour to start. I actually don’t know how to direct message here, but let’s try to figure it out. If not, I’ll give you my email and we can discuss this idea away from this forum. If nothing else, I have some ideas for ways to meet others in your area for face to face connections.
