Reply #59: What you're saying makes sense. But it's not for me. [View All]

It's for the kids who do sit there and do nothing about their situations. I don't just sit here complaining. While keeping tabs on this post, like most other days I am actively reading if not participating in LBN, GD, and GD2004 and other forums. That to me is learning. I don't care for your lecture because it really doesn't describe how I am. I've been here at DU since I was 13. If that isn't taking an active role in learning new things, I don't know what is. I read, right now I am reading a book called Snow Falling Upon Cedars. On my desk next to me I have a huge stack of books/poems by Hawthorne, Haley, Steinbeck, Sundatessan, Pitt, Dickinson, Cummings, Twain, etc. It's not that I don't do other things. It's that I'd like more time to do them.
