The last three decades have revealed amazing scientific discoveries. Yet, Chemistry tends to get a bad rap from American students and parents. Why? Looking back to the model of classical universities, Dr. Tim Anstine points out how the original scientists taught science. The great news is that today’s classical Christian schools follow this same model - so your children won’t have to be so bored anymore!
I recently read an article on Oprah.com by Allison Gilbert titled, "Why Looking at a Photo Can Ease Loneliness and Grief." I’d like to read the article to you because I think it explains why, if you’re anything like me, I hoard anything I’m given of my dad’s. I have every award he won, the tag from the mortuary, all his old desk items, old t-shirts, his digital watch, his signature stamp – side note: would an ink stamp be considered a legally bound signature? Ok, so you get it. If anyone hands me anything that used to be my dad’s, I’ll take it! And I’ll keep it! Why is this??? Let's read this article on nostalgia... Once considered a form of depression, nostalgia is getting a second look from psychologists, who increasingly see it as a source of strength. http://www.oprah.com/health_wellness/how-nostalgia-relieves-loneliness-and-grief
