“Behold the world fresh – as it is, on its own terms – through the eyes of a beginner. To know that you do not know and to be willing to admit that you do not know without sheepishly apologizing is real strength and sets the stage for learning and progress in any endeavor.”

    Yes, as Barbara wrote above—hmmm—what is it?

    I love the Epictetus quote. Yes, there is power in admitting you don't know. It opens up doors.

    Your mystery object above reminds me of a mini pouf. Maybe, a pin cushion. Hmmm. Well, in any case I love its patterns and shape.

    Is that going to be a beanie? I think it is. And I would truly, truly love to win that book.

      Not a beanie either. 🙂 10-4 on the book!
