At one time, I wanted to be a History teacher. One of the regrets in my life is that I didn’t take that route. But I am content with what I chose to do eventually.
I’m not surprised to know that. Just think, instead of teaching history to 20 or 30 students, you’re teaching to thousands. I’m one of those thousands. Thank you for that.
So wonderful quotes again. Thanks, Pete! So wonderful quotes again. Thank you very often! Very often I can’t resist to post quotes in my letters. 😉 xx Michael
On Pinterest, Janet. You don’t have to sign up, just look at Pinterest online and put anything into the search bar. I registered my email address with them, so they send me a selection every day. Once you choose to look at a lot of the same subject, they tailor the emails to suit your main interests.
Kropotkin had an epic beard. The boss leader thing leaves out the fact that someone needs to steer. A leader needs to find a way to get everyone rowing in the same direction. A very obvious problem in modern politics. When I trained sales reps my take on If you don’t know, shut up added the tag line “but I’ll find out for you.” I blew coffee out my nose, again, over the Freud. While we’re there, do you know that spell check inevitably wants to change Freud to Fraud?
I didn’t know about spellcheck as I don’t have it activated. Beards were very much the thing back then, but they are enjoying a resurgent popularity with ‘hipsters’ now.
