At Least This Helps Make My Point

So when is someone ready to learn? I know from experience that a willingness to learn is always a great place to start, but it doesn’t come with an absolute guarantee. Sometimes it comes down to ability.

(And to give an example of how willingness doesn’t always equate to ability, while I’m feeling much better than I did yesterday, my willingness to think coherently today isn’t granting me the ability, so I’m going to wrap this up for now.)

Don’t Try This One At Home Yourself

I have a new example of the difference between knowing something in your head and knowing something in your heart.  (I also have new definition of feeling vulnerable.)

While intellectually you may know that the person drilling on the other side of the wall is working a good six feet to your right at least, when the drill sounds like it’s directly behind you, you have an entirely different reaction on the emotional level.  (Ahem . . . particularly if you’re sitting in the bathroom at the time . . .)
