Revamp!!

Helloo everyone. I have some spring cleaning to do but I shall return. In the meantime, here's some information that I've been trying to process.  See you soon.

1) EDUCA'TION, n. [L. educatio.] The bringing up, as of a child, instruction; formation of manners. Education comprehends all that series of instruction and discipline which is intended to enlighten the understanding, correct the temper, and form the manners and habits of youth, and fit them for usefulness in their future stations. To give children a good education in manners, arts and science, is important; to give them a religious education is indispensable; and an immense responsibility rests on parents and guardians who neglect these duties.
(Taken from the 1828 dictionary by Noah Webster.http://1828.mshaffer.com/d/search/word,education 

2) Why Liberty matters and the dialectic vs didactic process.

Flashback

Do you know where you're going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you?
Where are you going to? do you know?
Do you get what you're hoping for?
When you look behind you there's no open door
What are you hoping for?
Do you know?


Theme song from 'Mahogany" sung by Diana Ross

I used to try and leave as many doors open as possible to keep my options wide. But if I truly reflect on my past was I really trying to be "open" or just afraid to make a commitment?

Vegetarian?

Ugh! what kinda weirdo doesn't eat meat or animal products? The same one that goes to university to play steelpan of all things.

For the past two years I've gradually cut down on the amount of meat I've been eating to the point where I no longer even purchase it. Initially I couldn't think past the (apparently) gaping hole on my plate where the meat kind was supposed to be but I'd still have no problem with dairy. The main incentive was to try and avoid hormone enhanced and GM foods.

Today though, I got a disgusting reminder that dairy (even apart from the hormones) may contain a certain amount of blood or pus from wounded udders. GROSS!! So no more dairy at all for me.

Jus don' call me ras.
