What I wonder is are you teaching or learning. Are you the student who is trying to understand what life is about and who you are, or a teacher who know all and is trying to instruct others? Aside from that, is linguistics your major interest? There's a lot of verbal word stuff in your post. Does it make you feel good to go through all of that or is it just practice for a job? Is it possible to just go with the flow or do you need to knock on every rock? Love and Light, Larry Epston www.epston.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
