I agree that social networking is good for the physical, as well as the mental wellbeing. Friends are the glue that holds us together. If it were not for my family and friends to guide me through the challenge I have been through over the last year. It would have made my challenge that much harder. All of the points are very valid and true points. However, #1 is especially meaningful for me. Thank you for reinforcing good advice and making me adhere to what I already knew.
