Daily (Snow White–style) Digital Life Litany for Protection, Direction and Stewardship

Caveat emptier: This post was drafted with help from an AI assistant (Perplexity)— but ideated and edited extensively by the human, Bill Acton

Dear Lord of forests and fireflies,

     watch over me in this bright, enchanted web.

Teach me not to trust every shining thing—

     not every ad with rosy cheeks,

     not every “mirror” that shows me only what I want to see,

     not every stranger offering a sweet, convenient click.

Give me friends like wise dwarfs:

     alerts that warn me when danger comes close,

     updates that help me work safely,

     trusted helpers who share advice instead of poison.

Guard my house of data so that 

     no wicked code slips in disguised as a gift,

     no jealous algorithm whispers that I am “less than,”

     no huntsman of hatred harms those I love online.

Help me steward my kindness in comments and messages,

     singing encouragement instead of curses,

     welcoming the lonely without inviting the wolf to the door.

And when the screen lulls me into drowsy scrolling,

     wake me with the kiss of truth—

     reminding me that real life waits

         beyond the magic glass.

AI‑assisted creative work: This litany is an imaginative parody pastiche using generative AI. It imitates the public persona of [Snow White] for commentary and devotional reflection. It is not created by or affiliated with [Snow White], and should not be taken as his real views or words.”
