What it is like to live?
What kind of life is it to never explore?
Is being alive actually living, or is it something else?

What is staring at a computer screen compared to counting the stars?
What is reading a book compared to seeing it happen?

I ask you, what are you going to tell you grandchildren?
That you spent all day looking at a screen?
Will you say that you have no regrets?
Or that you have regrets and then some?

There is no telling what the future holds unless you never go to find it.

This generation, my generation, is so absorbed in technology they aren't even seeing the beauty of God's creation around them.
