What Really Matters?

Since someone has said most of what I think is important somewhere in the past, the link to the article here:

http://www.naturallifemagazine.com/9412/gatto.htm

which was written by John Gatto in 1994. It is even more true now if such can be the case.

I guess in a way my putting it here is proof that we are mostly told what to think and don't do much thinking for ourselves. I resemble many of his remarks about education and time spent in youth as well as in the not too distant past.

A couple of days ago I started to write a blog with the exact same title but then was interrupted and decided to put it off. I'm glad that happened and that I ran across this article instead.

If you have time to read it please do.

Thanks Algiz - the link was wonderful wisdom. I read his book too a while back.

You might enjoy this link (there's an interesting logo at the beginning too :)

Alex,
What an honor it is that you read my blog. You are one of two people to do so. I read yours regularly as you have such interesting things to say. I just looked at my blog today and didn't expect to have a comment and it's funny that I just started listening to you on Celtic Rebel's audio the same day. I'm only 30 minutes into the interview but will finish later. Again, I can't believe one of my favorites has looked at my stuff such as it is. Thank you.
