Advice (?) to those people on the internet that feel "lost" and all that, I guess XD

     Has anyone else noticed that lately popular people on the internet have backed off or quit or are changing their view on it and stuff? Like YTers have made changes and bloggers have quit and stuff? Cause I'm pretty sure I've seen a lot more of that this year than ever before. But I do and I don't get why its happening. I do, in that I understand that a lot of people have gotten, basically, consumed by internet life and making stuff on the internet their lives and have lost other things because of it. But at the same time I sort of don't understand how it got so bad... Is that weird to say? I get why, like all the "facts" and "reasonings" make sense... but at the same time, they dont. But maybe that's just a wierd thing about me.
     I started this blog, because I was bored, basically. For YEARS I've been thinking about doing something online, whether it be making videos or writing stuff, I was just too paranoid to do so, but this year I was all "fuck it" XD There were times it really "felt" like God was calling me to do something, and then I'd film a potential video or write something or rehearse something, but eventually it went unpublished as time went on. (BTdubbs, I saw Alice Through the Looking Glass today and every time I say or think or write "time" I laugh XD) Anyway, I started this, knowing that I would not get "big", or rather, I'd have a very, very slim chance. And I was right. I get like an average of 5 views per post on this thing XD I wonder who ya'll are... Is it the same few people coming back or different people each time just clicking through and not really reading, but just viewing and so the counter counts it. I dunno. But I figure, if I'm meant to "get big" it will be because God gave it the go and stuff, and since it hasn't happened, I figure its just an outlet for me to talk to... well, whoever wants to read. I'm not out to make it big or do anything specific, not on here anyway, I was just bored and had this account at my disposal.
     That being said though, I don't go into depth with most of these bloggers and YTers that I see who are either quitting or changing something about their online selves, but from the gist of it, it seems like they got lost in all the work and the fame. Honestly, I'd say that most of these people don't know Jesus. Even though supposedly, like a lot of people, millions and billions of people say they are Christians, a lot fewer act like it and live like it. I think that the reason these people "lose themselves" or whatever is cause they ain't got Jesus! Cause if you got Jesus, you don't need nothing else, honey! And if you got Jesus, you'd know that you wouldn't have to worry about "the pressure of the viewers" and stuff, cause you'd only be making content for one person: GOD! Like, I believe that God is always watching and He's the only one that matters. I try not to do things, even this blog, for the... what the word, approvement? No... Approval! Of others. I'm not here to try to get people to like me or to have a following and all that, I'm just here cause I want to be and I think the internet is a great place to share the Word of the Lord. Now, I admit, I'm not always the best at that in person, but maybe being this confident on here, where I'm mostly anonymous, will encourage me to do it out there too. And actually, it has :) I try to stand up for what I believe in, not that I didn't before, but just a little more, ya know, and let people know, that yeah, I am a Christian. I might be "old fashioned" but I think that's the right way to live and I'm living my life for the Lord, not for other humans.
     So yeah, I feel like the topic shifted from where it started out... but I think it makes sense. I guess what all this is saying is that, as long as you got God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit and you obey His commands, you won't have to worry about stuff. If you got your eyes on God, it'll all fall into place and you'll have just the right amount of "fame" if you will. And if you happen to get big and find yourself "lost" just remember that God has found you and always knows where you are and all you gotta do is ask for help if you think you're stuck :) Also, just take a chill pill, cause fretting aint gonna get you no where. XD
     P.S- I learned the word "fret" from the 1st Pirates of the Caribbean movie XD
