A Short Thought On A Sad Fact
Fact: 60% of College Graduates Do Not Read A Book A Year After Graduating.
How is it that the older generations of Americans say that society is dumbing down? Easy. The fact above is one of the ways that it is. Imagine reading "The Grapes of Wrath" instead of watching the movie. You might actually have to use your imagination instead of having the picture painted for you. That use of your imagination could spark another idea or thought that leads to discovery. Instead we are sloth-like in our habits of allowing others to show us their ideas and thoughts instead of having our own.
