This Is A Video EVERYONE Needs To See.

“This media we call social is anything but, when we open our computers and it’s our doors we shut”… This is one of the most vital messages that everyone needs to hear.

Look Up is a spoken word for the “online” generation. Written, performed and directed by Gary Turk, it is an extremely important life lesson for our youth. Children are growing up in a world where they don’t play outside or communicate with their friends. It seems today everything is done via text message or over the internet. It’s heartbreaking…

from The Gray Area:

Technology we create requires a great amount of thought and control when it comes to using it. Whether it is smart phones, the internet, computers, television, social networks, stem cells, the human genome, nuclear weapons, etc, etc, etc. Not that technology is bad. We invent it, and then we take generations to figure out the good, the bad and the ugly about the impacts of using it. Just because we created it, doesn’t mean we automatically know how to handle it.
