it's a guy thing !

After a few field trips with a team of 4 (2 guys 2 ladies)  ..... .. I have come to the conclusion (more like confirms)  that  ..... men don't read instructions and don't ask for directions ... why simply because they  'know it  already' ( imagine it in a braggish tone !) and when they can't figure out how to work it or get lost  they will never admit it..

New age ... bad for children

Image
'boon and bane ' Game speeds, hand eye coordination ...   violent game scenarios.... they can pick up games and yet have problem using  the Powerpoint ? Typing is too passe...  .. I suppose the invention to do away with that is up next ! Where's the time to experience peace, calm..dinner conversation... when the goal of each waking moment is to fill with some action. Unless it's 'moving', nothing else seems to HOLD their attention for long... everything else seems slow and booori..ng especially reading.. What's happened to their imagination, where is it buried, how do we bring it back out to work again. Unlike the ancient floppy disk, the imagination has no limitations so why are children so limited in using theirs. 
To say you have lived means you should at some time in life, have lived as a beast of burden for a time.

The weekend finally..

Image
I finally have a weekend, a Saturday that's not scheduled for any particular demand on my time. It's time to go get shoes, somebody's feet grew and somebody's feet is feeling vane. Time to catch up on assignment and read. Let's go to a Novena service first I think, then get on with other matters. Shine on me, sunshine Rain on me, rain Fall softly, dewdrop And cool my brow again. Storm, blow me from here With your fiercest wind Let me float across the sky Til I can rest again.             - Maya Angelou
