Think about it, we spend our lives skipping from one holiday to the next. After one is over, we look ahead and begin to make plans for the next one. In the dull bits in between all the birthdays and such, we just go...

As you can deduce from the title, I have just come back from philosophy class and I'm feeling perturbed, probably because of the relative sheltered life I've lived before this year. So here we go. Human nature is insatiable. We all know this is a basic fact of life...humans are never really satisfied with what they have, whether it's...

So I've been reading this amazing book titled "The Tao of Pooh", written by Benjamin Hoff.
