Teaching the kids how to think.
Two have flown the nest, and
they still call for help and advise. They are
independent and brilliant young ladies, but they've
a lot to learn yet. They will do well in life.
Two more are just starting out, so I get to do
it over again, and try not to repeat previous mistakes.
I like to teach them the things that the schools
don't: creative thinking; and that's also just what
they teach me.
Teaching the wife how to think.
Don't get me wrong, she's smarter
than she knows... She's a smart, beautiful, talented
woman with an artist's sensibilities and temperament.
So why doesn't she see things my way more often?
Oh well, maybe in twenty more years...
Teaching myself how to think.
It's not so different from what
I like at work. I like to research and learn.
I like to read about and learn about Genealogy,
Software Assurance, Software Architecture, Technology,
Business, and many more things. The games I like
all have some element of skill. I like to play
games when I can learn from them.
Teaching, Learning, Discovering...
