“REMOVE from friends.”

This is no ordinary button. One click and I have the power to erase a person from my life.

In late fall, I had around 400 friends on Facebook. Today, I have 134.

Click. Make that 133.

When Facebook first entered my life in 2005, I panicked

(恐慌、担心)

that my friend count was too low. If

I wasn’t properly connected, how would anyone see my clever quote(

引语

) ?Who would wish me a happy birthday?

I accepted and sent out friend requests without a second thought and soon accumulated 391 friends.

There is an appeal to being able to communicate with someone or just “thumbs(

拨动手指

) up” a photo rather

than make real conversation.

“It’s comforting and it’s easy,” said Larry Rosen, a psychology professor at California State University, who

studies the way people communicate online.“There’s a sense of belonging in it. It’s a sense of community in a

generation where community has sort of (

有点

)disappeared.”

However, I don’t talk to half of these people in the online community. There are some I would avoid if I met

them on the street.

Click. 132.

I decided to rid my account of any “friend” that…well, wasn’t. Sound easy You try it.

Look at who you’re dealing with: family, friends, classmates, crushes(

爱恋的对象

), acquaintances…

With every click of the “Remove from friends” button, you risk burning a bridge, losing a contact and missing

an opportunity. So every time I go to click the button, my heart hurts.

However, I’m not the only one who has experienced a Faceboook friend refreshing. The New Oxford

American Dictionary announces its “Word of the Year” each year, and last year, “unfriend” made the cut (

入围

)

(though I’ll still stick with “defriend”).

When I started my mission(

任务

), a few friends joined. Most were surprised by how easily they could cut

hundreds of connections without thinking twice.

“Oh my God, I defriended like 600 people today. I feel so good!” my friend Sarah messaged.

Dana, a close friend from high school, and I battled it out to see who could get our counts lower. She wins at

123.

To some, it’s poor “netiquette(

网络礼仪

)” to defriend. But to me, it’s the stage of life when we hold onto the

people who count, the people who impact you.

We feel angry or guilty (

内疚的

) about the things we did or did not achieve, about

the things we cannot have, and many other things. It seems that everyone carries their own bad emotions. But

neither guilt nor anger can help us. Over time, they can be heavy weights on our shoulders.

These bad emotions don’t do anything good for us at all. So you might ask yourself—is it possible to put down

this heavy burden and give yourself a break? It is quite possible. Start by actually looking at your feelings. How do

they get inside of us? Why do we carry them for so long instead of putting them down? Can we live without them?

After thinking about our bad emotions, we can find healthy ways to deal with them. Unhealthy behaviors are

not the way to do this. They provide no help. Instead, there are better ways to deal with them. One of the best ways

is forgiveness (

原谅

).
