Dining in Seoul, Korea Kia ora Coromind readers! One of my favourite destinations so far has to be Seoul, Korea. I have been there a handful of times now, but
Like it or not, we are all affected to some extent by our feelings: joy, sadness, anger and fear are a part of all our lives. The question is, how do we react when we feel them? We can be overwhelmed by them, ignore them, wish they’d go away or bottle them up.
Who are you? Why are you …? Ahhh, I don’t even know what to say. I’m sitting here behind my screen feeling blocked, unable to write the words I desire, so stuck in my head.
Why can’t I do this? Is it because I forgot to eat breakfast? Maybe it’s my sore back?
Most likely, it’s the guilt from the unrest I directed at my wife 10 minutes ago that was entirely a product of my stress and nothing to do with her.
It never ceases to amaze me how young minds soak up knowledge naturally through play and interaction. A child can learn several languages at the same time and not confuse them when speaking. But suddenly, at age five or six, they are required to slot into an education system and change the way they learn, often being forced into learning styles that don’t suit their abilities. Of course, with classes of 25 or more, teachers are restricted in how they teach.
So, I’ve a theory on where all the eggs are. The guilt felt by farmers because of the cages was massive. So the area that the chickens have now is vast! They can’t find the hens to retrieve the eggs. It’s a real egg hunt.
Why did the chicken cross the road?
Free range, innit?!
