Face to Face with Greatness

We're home from our little weekend excursion into the land of educational seminars. I just love how these things make me realize how big the world is and how clueless I am about all of it. You think someone like me might become discouraged by knowing nothing about anything but that just gives me hope. Either I'm too stupid to know better or there is only room for improvement.

I did learn a few things this weekend.

The more you know, the more you learn and the more you learn the less you know.

Just think about it for a minute and you'll see that it's true.

Another thing I learned is that 1 can never equal 1 and that math isn't about numbers and quantities. I thought it was just a rumor that was floating around but apparently it's true; math is about symbolism. (My friend Sarah just taught me how to use a semi-colon. Did I do good?)

And finally I learned the difference between a teenager and a young adult and I'm mad that all society seems to be raising these days is teenagers.

A teenager is a post-pubescent who acts like a child and a young adult is a post-pubescent who is trying to act like an adult. Hmmm, now that I think of it, I might still be a teenager myself.

Let's end this post on that positive note.
