FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Within our reach lies every path we ever dream of taking.

Within our power lies every step we ever dream of making.

Within our range lies every joy we ever dream of seeing.

Within ourselves lies everything we ever dream of being.

 

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
A good guideline to keep in mine:  Do not do anything on a computer that you would not do if your teacher or parents were standing behind you, watching.
