I have attained the age of what a child calls, “Really OLD.” My first great-grandchild will be born in the next couple months. I have been a clown for the last 13 years. a great clown (Red Skelton I think) once said, “The great thing about being a clown is that you get to act like you are six years old.” That means looking at the entire world with eyes of wonder. Starting years ago in Knowledge News, you have looked at the entire world, and beyond. The six year old in me says that you have done a great job and I am looking forward to what you post in the future.

Following this line of logic, then Minneapolis MN doesn’t have bad weather in the winter; it just has a severe lack of weather. Something that I mentioned to my sister when I visited here there.

And now I will never hear “Turn! Turn! Turn!” again without thinking of the new and improved (?) lyrics. That made me giggle. I appreciate your info. I sound much smarter at parties these days!

On the same day as your winter post, my yoga teacher read this quote to contemplate during our lesson:

“Live each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each.”
–Henry David Thoreau
US Transcendentalist author (1817-1862)

And from my dictionary…
Resign= give over without resistance = accept as inevitable
Literally to “unsign,” “unseal,” “cancel” — that is, to stop one thing and fall under the spell of the now thing.

Another exuberance of childhood. Why can’t we learn from children? We have really lost the best part of being alive. Have you ever looked at a baby learning to say words? They use all their mouth muscles; there is expression when a kindergartener speaks. We shush children when they are loud with excitement. Kids are running, not walking, to where they are going. And we have squelched all of that, so that they can be fit to participate in society.
