In response to "Sorry for the INTIMIDATION..."

Here's I found in the dictionary about
the meaning of Intimidate
1.frighten or overawe (someone), especially in order to make them do what one wants.

and for me in my own dictionary.
In-timid-ate
- I am usually have that behavior when I am in my full concentration like reading or doing my work.
- or in other words forgetting to eat meals or skipping or frighten to eat meal.(just kidding)

Thank you for this information about the meanings of intimidation.

We are so CLOSE, Alexi

, to moving back into our renovated home. Only hours away, all being well. And then I might reclaim some spare moments of each day to THINK. And if I get the time to relax and think, then I'll be able to write blog entries again. I'll be able to put thoughts across, write them here, share them with others like yourself. Because even if those thoughts are a load of rubbish, at least they might provoke people to think thoughts themselves.

And from thoughts come the fuel, the ideas, the purpose, the passion, the desire, to write 'em down.

In response to "Where were you when children learned such simple lessons?"

Children learn because they are willing. It's just that people aren't willing to become humble, to realise they need to learn.
