LEARNING IS LIFE

HAPPY (SCREEN) INDEPENDENCE DAY! SCREEN INDEPENDENCE ANTHEM The glowing screen, a constant hum, Takes moments, makes the mind go numb. But turn it off, let silence bloom, And banish digital gloom. Step outside, the world is vast, Real life lessons, built to last. A book, a chat, a quiet thought, True wisdom can be taught. Screenless peace, a gentle way, To learn and grow each passing day. Screen independence, fresh 'n bright, Fills your spirit with pure light.
