i love this, from Jenny:
-=-It's good to have solid reasons for why one is choosing an
alternative to regular schooling, it's even better to not live there
and know good solid reasons why you do what you do that is FOR
something rather than AGAINST something. This is something that I see
in my oldest daughter these days more and more, her positive optimism
towards something more than her negative opposition against something.
She does both for sure, but she leans heavily towards the optimism
forward part of life and I can directly link that to the general
attitude in our house because we stopped going against things and went
toward things as a family.-=-
I have some friends and what I know most about them is what they
hate: HATE country music, WalMart, pit bulls, the Office of Homeland
Security, HATE people texting, hate seeing men's underwear stick out
of men's jeans.... HATE, Hate, hate.
I don't want to be the black hole where other things don't exist.
That's like being one of the bubbles in the ash layers after Vesuvius
erupted. I don't want to exist as the inventory of things I am not.
