Do you remember when you were a
kid, and saw your first automobile? To the older crowd, the answer might be
yes. To them, the first automobile was most-likely an object of wonder. It
wasn't necessarily a thing to be feared, just an unknown. It was something that
you had heard of, but hadn't had any experience with it. It wasn't scary.
To most everyone else, you don't
remember your first time you saw an automobile, because they've just always
been around. You aren't scared of them because you are familiar with them. The
youngest generation of youth feel the same way about computers.
Many of you may remember the first
time you saw a computer. It was a strange thing that you weren't familiar with.
To some of you, it was exciting. To others, it wasn't. But somewhere along the
line, you decided that using a computer was something that only younger (or
more "gifted") people should do.
We're past the age when cars are
for only the most wealthy. Now, everyone has a car. In previous days, it was
perfectly fine to walk everywhere. Some still do that, but most have learned to
drive. In these days, there are still some who can "get around" just
fine without the use of a computer, but most people use them multiple times in
a week.
In the same way, however, that most
people see cars, the younger generations see computers. Computers are not
something to fear. They're only something that you're not familiar with. That
doesn't make them bad. And it doesn't make YOU bad.
