Day 111

Not only is it Day 111, a great day for binary code, but it is also art show time! When I was in school I didn't remember there ever being an art show. These days it seems every district, and in some cases individual schools has an art show. I suppose I am thankful for these shows, they give students recognition and praise for their abilities. Perhaps encouragement and confidence as they venture forward. I guess my hesitance and reservations lie in the question of whether or not they really need these shows? Clearly many of us succeeded to become prosperous and happy individuals without even the notion of an art show. But, they do seem to be good for the kids that participate, and especially the ones who win! So for now Ill say I am thankful that there are these shows for our kids to participate in and be a part of. But, I have a sneaking suspicion I may have a different opinion if I had to organize one! Until then. . .
