happy friday to everyone...

I pulled this from my blog.
I think it's very useful to be aware of this..as we all zoom towards digital 
literacy.

Some of you may know that I work at the YMCA with computer labs. So you 
would think I would be all about giving kids access to computers at any age. 
Well, I read an article in Orion titled "Charlotte's Webpage" that I really 
agree with,..and it argues for keeping children connected to the "real" 
world.

take care..

But don’t be satisfied with poems||
And stories of how things||
Have gone with others.||
Unfold your own myth,||
Without complicated explanation,||
So everyone will understand||
The passage||
“We have opened you”||
ILLUMNIATED RUMI
