Look: I am eager to learn stuff I don't know--which requires actively courting and posting smart disagreement.

But as you will understand, I don't like to post things that mischaracterize and are aimed to mislead.

Haiku Wednesday

Fathers

We are roll models,
Teachers, guardians, guides, and
Fallibly human.


Join the fun!

So true, fallible maybe, But there for us as children is what matters. It is the father that is not there that looses out.I enjoyed this very much.

Very true indeed, but it makes dads all the more lovable... I think. At least as a daughter I found it easier to forgive the faults in my dad.

Strange, I know.
