I received the following email forwarded by an online friend who is also one of my regular breakfast 'kakis'. For those retirees who use internet, they are 'one up' over those who do not, not that it is a big deal, just being able to know something ahead of them. It is quite similar to those who refuse to acknowledge the importance of English in gaining information from the rest of the world. Wait for the translation?
Anyway, among computer users, the knowledge ranges from those who just know how to surf the net to those who are able to write software programs. For those ordinary users, there is a vast difference as to how much each person knows... even in the usage of what is available. So many features are left unused because of the lack of knowledge. One good example is this email, which has all kinds of graphic and animation which I am unable (lack of knowledge) to transfer on to this page. So, here it is, without the interesting features:
I had some free time, so what did I do? I checked the computer to see if I'd heard from you!
I used to walk out to a box to retrieve mail. But I'd rather get it instantly, than wait on the snail!
Checking my e-mail is always fun! I usually get a joke or greeting from someone.
I feel so blessed because on the other end, I know I've connected with a friend!
When I've had a hard day and need to share, Here I can find a friend who will listen and care
And to this friend I hope I've let them know, That I am always there for them also!
Isn't it a strange kind of bond we form? It isn't exactly like the "norm"!
But, where is it written, face to face we must be, For you to be a very good friend to me??
That little joke or note, or just a simple "Hi", Could be like a ray of sunshine from the sky!
So my online pals, this is dedicated to you, For all the smiles you have made anew!
May our friendship continue to grow, And the warmth we feel continue to flow!
Always remember this...
A smile is such an easy thing to pass along the way,
Like a ray of summer sunshine, On a somewhat gloomy day!!
Thank you for being my Online Friend!!!
