Teach, Learn, Share
I love learning. It is the catalyst to a more intriguing afternoon, the frosting on our daily corporeal experiences.
Whether it's a new way to floss your teeth or esoteric erudition, I want to learn it! Listening to others is beautifully insightful.
I feel that I can offer a bit of knowledge on nature, organic gardening, adventurous cooking (sans recipes), Mandarin Chinese 101, and why life is better without television.
