Hi Hillary,
What’s with all these people calling for help on the social media. Don’t they have friends they can just ring up? Or is it because the social media is free?

Dear Jerome,
Aren’t you the comforting one? Glad I’m not on your “friends” list. Look, Petal, everyone (except you) can need a hug or a kind word from somebody, and the social media is made up of lots of somebodies! I don’t believe that in a time of need, whatever the reason, you think about the cost of a phone call. Perhaps if you answered some of the calls you could have a better view on life. I would agree that the social media has strayed from what was originally envisaged and now has too many adverts and “look at me” people, but it is still a wonderful way to stay in contact with the world.
