Quotes

  • Actual happiness looks pretty squalid in comparison with the overcompensations for misery. And, of course, stability isn’t nearly so spectacular as instability. And being contented has none of the glamour of a good fight against misfortune, none of the picturesqueness of a struggle with temptation, or a fatal overthrow by passion or doubt. Happiness is never grand. - Aldous Huxley, Brave New World
  • Education
    "Must we always teach our children with books? Let them look at the stars and the mountains above. Let them look at the waters and the trees and flowers on Earth. Then they will begin to think, and to think is the beginning of a real education." -David Polis
  • "Above all, do not lose your desire to walk: every day I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness; I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it... but by sitting still, and the more one sits still, the closer one becomes to feeling ill... Thus if one just keeps walking, everything will be all right." -Soren Kierckgaard
  • Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower. - Albert Camus
  • How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. Annie Dillard

See it to believe it

Silas has a little friend named Aiden.  They've known each other for about a year and play together fairly often.  After playgroup the other day, Silas kept referring to Aiden as a girl.  I reminded Silas that Aiden was a boy and he said, "No, Aiden can't be a boy, she is a girl."

Aiden's long hair does cause a lot of people to assume he is a girl, but I didn't think Silas, with such long hair himself, would make that leap.  When I asked him why Aiden couldn't be a boy, Si said, "Boys can't have red hair, only girls and ladies can."  Apparently, Silas has never seen a male with red hair!

He is starting to believe it might be possible for a boy to be a red-head, but I don't think he is convinced.
