My Pet Hates

On Medium.

Screen shot.

I love Medium, a place I found through a friend years ago that is the ideal place to publish and share my ideas and thoughts with like-minded poets and writers.

I use it as an emotional journal, mainly in my rhyming poetry.

I’ve made lifelong friends on Medium, to whom I am grateful.

My philosophy on life is reciprocation: experiencing the same (love, liking, or affection) for someone as that person does for oneself.

“Time is of the essence for us all and waste of time is unforgivable”

Examples of this and “My Pet Hates” on Medium, are some of and often countless notifications I get from Medium that are a waste of time if:

1. Someone else Also Highlighted something I have highlighted

2. Tagging that’s used by some writers to gain followers

3. If only Responses to our poems and pieces are notified,
Medium would be a far friendlier place.

With courtesy, love and respect
