You always entice me with these tidbits. Right away I want to know, what is she feeling ignorant about today.
The lovely thing about recognizing ignorance in ourselves is that it is a totally curable state of mind.
I wish you luck in your search. Maybe what you learn will enlighten us all and we can all move a little further along the continuum.
over my head today wanda!
Carrie...I think you are right.
Kathryn...glad you got the humor and started your day with a chuckle. I hope your being here at this time doesn't mean you are home sick...?
Margie...sorry.
