Scared of the Peacock Revolution since 2006
Blog » Musing
I've been doing some musing lately, (if you don't know what musing is, Sarah defines muse over in this post) ending with me deciding that I really need to fix the text size in the tinyMCE editor so I can stop squinting. Aaah, that's better.
This musing has helped learn a few tidbits about stuff.
Slow people or people who stop every thirty seconds to take photos. Which I guess is a way of being a slow person.
Simon Handicap because that's what one of the 8 year olds told me.
I also don't know how to act around non-kids, so can't even apply that to them.
I'm lucky in that I barely care at all if other people disagree with my beliefs or way of doing things. Like the current my literal 6-day creation belief vs everyone else in #aioc.
The serious talk made me realise how much I really need to improve this comments system. Or the email it sends me at least :)

Why "simon handicap"?
Also, I can relate to the small children and how to act confusion.
I think what kiddies generally hide is that they're just as nervous, and mostly want the older person to initiate everything. Treat them as if they matter (and not like they're stupid, ie. no patronising) and things seem to go okay.
I've noticed that kids often question my choices and attitudes to stuff, if it's different to their own (or how they've been brought up). I think there is value in staying true to how YOU do things/think etc but being willing to explain your choices. I'm trying to learn that I don't have to pretend away my differences, but instead having faith in who God's made me to be, without being unconstructively negative about how other people approach things.
Nuff serious talk :)
