Update

I'm working and busy, I don't know about you.

I am working for a moving company (again). I am sweatin' off the pounds while I am picking up hide-a-beds and toting them down from third floor apartments. I am bored out of my gourd while I am driving to different parts of the country.

But hey, I'm bringing home the bacon!

I will try to write more later but right now I am just a simple truck driver.

How about you? What are you doing this summer? Why don't you drop me a comment and let me know how things are going.

    Dude! It sounds like your summer has been pretty tough.

    I have been to Florida twice this summer with moves. The moving company down here is paying me really well.

    Hey, keep up the good work. Try to make sure there is something left of you for your senior year bball season.

    Mr. Harmless- I miss you! I'm having a fun summer! I've been working a lot, and I went camping twice. I'm going to NC soon with the family, and that's pretty much it. It's so boring. I hope you and your fam are well and enjoying your new home. My email is stephy22@insightbb.com in case you forgot it! :) Well talk to you later. Have a great summer!

The Seed and The Soil of Education (New Learning Project Part 1)

(This is my entry for the first part of my project for my New Learning course that I am taking.) Introduction Corn Fields in Illinois I have lived the majority of my life in the Midwest: mid-state Illinois to be specific. Where I live, farming is everywhere. My grandparents and great-grandparents on both sides of my family were farmers. My dad grew up on a farm and owned farmland, well into my own adulthood. But, even if it wasn’t in the family, I still would have been surrounded by farming. You can’t go more than a mile outside of my city’s limits without encountering miles and miles of fields. Most of our highways, and even interstates, are located between acres of farmland.

This too shall pass...

Gam zeh ya'avor (Hebrew) "This Too Shall Pass" Welcome!  According to Google Analytics, this is by far the most visited post that I have ever written.  If someone comes here from a search engine, most of the time they are looking for " this too shall pass quote " or simply " this too shall pass " on Google or one of the other search engines. I am sure that most of the time visitors are looking for the originations of this quote, but I have to wonder, why is this quote on people's minds? Why are they pondering the passing of events?   Here is my thought: It is probably because most of us have realized that the adult life is much harder than we ever imagined it to be. There is more pain and more sorrow than we had ever imagined as children, but we have learned that time keeps ticking. And as time continues to flow things pass. In fact, even the really big things and the really hard things will still pass. If you are here because you are thinking ...

The Minnesota Crime Commission wrote:

Every baby starts life as a little savage. He is completely selfish and self-centered. He wants what he wants when he wants it: his bottle, his mother's attention, his playmate's toys, his uncle's watch, or whatever. Deny him these and he seethes with rage and aggressiveness which would be murderous were he not so helpless. He's dirty, he has no morals, no knowledge, no developed skills. This means that all children, not just certain children but all children, are born delinquent. If permitted to continue in their self-centered world of infancy, given free reign to their impulsive actions to satisfy each want, every child would grow up a criminal, a thief, a killer, a rapist.
