I like working with kids. I've done a fair bit of teaching and supervising, and I find it so amusing they look to me for answers coz all I do is ask questions, or tell them to do what they think they should. After all, you never know if you don't try.
It's all to hide my utter cluelessnes!!!
I used to study politics, History and Anthropology, all subjects I love, and I used to get emotionally involved as you do, and it just about tore me apart. I think us sensitive types need to be careful in which area's we dabble coz looking at 'the big pic' can be very self destructive.
I take care of my little patch now.
I watch, and listen to what goes on in the world but don't allow myself to get emotionally involved, coz I'm not willing to get involved Knowledge and power are my enemy so I just love where I can!
I don't envy anyone who lives in a big (or even little) city. I can't handle the noise, you can't hear the birds. At any time of day - except in the really hot heat of summer, I can hear more birds than any other noise.
It's peace.
I have to go now, the AFL (footy) Grand Final is on, all the politics and exercise I need!!!!
