Being unable to use a computer may reflect feeling outdated or unable to keep up.

Turtles represent the wisdom of patience, the value of self-protection, and the journey through life at your own pace. The turtle's shell is its home, symbolizing the ability to carry your sense of security with you wherever you go. In many creation myths, the world rests on a turtle's back.
