Too organized? Me too. Unfortunately this is a case when our best survival
skills which serve us well in education (where we are the ultimate
multi-taskers) don't do us any favors. It's a very uncomfortable place in
which to be, but reading To Understand is a wake-up call about what it takes to
learn and understand deeply. It's such a mess, huh? But let's unleash our
inner right brains and go for it!! Bev

Thanks for your response Bonita.I'd love to get back together as the year goes
along. I just picked up myown blank idea book today and forced myself to write
it it. I have so many ideas but I struggle with validating myself by writing in
the journal. I need to give myself permission to write poorly, to jump from
topic to topic, and to just "not be profound." I'm going to use this book while
on vacation next week and record ideas on various topics. I'm resisting the
need to organize it and table-ize it in word. I'll keep you posted. Leslie
