Scrolling through screens, such is part of life these days for many, many folks,
Betcha the screen most often is less than three inches by 5 inches, hand-held, always in-hand computer most still refer to as “my phone” …
Scrolling takes many forms, these come to the fore most quickly,
Facebook, Instagram, X (Twitter), dating apps aplenty (meh!), and those are my old man apps that come to mind, no doubt myriad more are popular,
The further thought comes to mind quickly, is scrolling ever ok…dare I say…good?
Yep, I say, scrolling CAN be good, and here’s when,
You are researching a topic or simply consuming the news and current affairs,
If you’re dialed into reliable sources, going deeper ever deeper, clicking link after link, reading more, learning more, I’d say that’s a good result,
That’s the best of the internet and having content readily available to consume,
But buyer beware!
Scrolling can also lead you down the dark path of disinformation and misinformation and just plan crap …
So scroll with caution, with discernment, but fear not,
Scrolling, Good?
OWN YOUR SCROLL ~
Addendum Bit: Considering additional, thinking about another definition for “scroll”,
A roll of writing material, and with a bit more imaginative license, the story told therein,
OWN YOUR LIFE STORY TOO,
You’re the only one who can,
And regardless of the ups and downs, make it GOOD ~
