An attitude of gratitude
This is a necessity in today's world of whining, complaining, griping, and entitlement. It's good to literally practice this at the end of the day. So today I am grateful for some good deals at the grocery store which allowed me to not spend a lot of money; and for a delicious, made-from-scratch dinner; and for a lovely, brisk, long walk afterwards in the cool of the evening (and as a bonus, it didn't even rain like it was threatening to!)
So how about you? What are you thankful for today?
I went to visit a friend years ago in Mexico City. This was a doorway leading out into the grounds of a former seminary, now the Museo Nacional del Virreinato, in Tepotzotlan, just north of greater Mexico City. Minus the silly fire extinguishers which I dared not move, it's always been one of my favourite photos. It's like a door to the Promised Land or something. Just lovely!
My son specifically bought a VHS just to have, just in case.
saw this exact post but about DVDs by not-a-space-alien and felt the need to check something
Homeschooling
For those who think home schooled kids are indoctrinated just replace that last now biased word with the concept of a worldview and you will realize that all children are "indoctrinated" whether passively or impassively. A schooled child who is bullied, ignored at home, and left to fend for themselves, is also being indoctrinated. They are taught that they are worthless and that the world doesn't care. A schooled child who is taught whatever is on the local school board's agenda whether that agrees or disagrees with their parents' beliefs is also being indoctrinated. Childhood is formation time, and all children are being formed. doctrine /dŏk′trĭn/
noun
A principle or body of principles presented for acceptance or belief, as by a religious, political, scientific, or philosophic group; dogma.
