I'm about to post this book as one of my 20 too. It was hard to fathom how they lived and what she went through. An incredible story.

A person in a wheelchair wearing a pink hoodie with short hair. Superimposed is a social post from Misa on Wheels. Text reads: Just because someone does not need to use their mobility aid 100% of the time does not mean they do not need it when they 100% do.

I agree. I read it a few years before that, but when that happened and seeing it unfolding on TV, and then later meeting many of the women who were driven out of Afghanistan at that time, it really brought home what they went through, and often how their families were split as they tried to escape.

It takes curiosity to learn. It takes courage to unlearn.

Learning requires the humility to admit what you don't know today. Unlearning requires the integrity to admit that you were wrong yesterday.

Learning is how you evolve. Unlearning is how you keep up as the world evolves.

Can't wait to see what you post! 🧶

How Do the Books We Read Change Our Brains? When it comes to reading, most people can identify a book (often one they read in adolescence) that changed the way they think. Stephen King has cited William Golding’s Lord of the Flies, which he …

I completely agree. Glad you are nurturing a member of the next generation of vinyl lovers ☺️

You may have! Vinyl is very popular among the youngsters. My teen boys both have a large vinyl collection. They like them because they sound pretty as well as look pretty. And they are into music that was popular before I was even born.

Haha yes! 🤣 I can relate. My dear fluffball does like to mark his territory at the same time as manicuring his talons.

He should never be put in charge of anything. He ruins everything he touches.

I can relate to this

A grey cat resting with his chin on a box, next to another box, lying on some packing paper. He has one paw leaning on the box.

Who needs an expensive cat bed when you have boxes?

Don't mind me, I'm just watching the video of the slug on the hamster wheel, from the study's supplementary materials.
