hi to gina and ken and all ken wrote, in part: >Gina, you should write humor books, really! i agree! [except i think they should be humour books] maybe it's just that gina's sense of humour is like mine! i regret that i have failed to tell you before this, gina, but all of your little quips as well as your larger cracks crack me up! and then ken said: >...As we come into our lot in life, we are all in a learning >mode. When I became a father for the first time, I learned >a lot of things I never even thought about until that time. >I have two kids, and I NEVER stop learning, even for a minute. >Did I "screw up"? Many times! as far as i know the only i said the only way that we humans really learn anything i said anything is by making mistakes aka goofing up aka screwing up if we popped into this world knowing everything what the heck would be the point? i believe no i know that we are here to learn things for ourselves [i.e. to love myself] and to help others learn for themselves [i.e. to love others] imagine a baby learning to walk what do we tell her when she falls down? A: you rotten kid, you're so stupid, i've shown you a dozen times! or B: ooh, did the little girl fall down go boom? try again, you can do it! sorry gang, i'll get off my soapbox now... your cyber-sibling in laughing and loving janet
