Literacy and how it has changed
I realize now that I have taken this class that I am a literate person. I always thought of myself as non literate because I hated reading books, but come to find out I love reading text messages, magazines, and other topics that interest me. I also love communicating, thus I am an Interpersonal Communications major. I also love writing. This just came to me this past week when my niece passed away, but I wrote a poem to her and read it at the funeral. After the funeral everyone came up to me and told me how beautiful it was (they may have just been being nice), but one lady wants me to send her the poem so that she can send it into Chicken Soup for the Soul books.
