What is your "soul education?"

That's something you've learned, not in text books or from your parents, but something you've learned through your life's experience?

That men and women are always going to think the other one is crazy.

That George Clinton is a God but no one else seems to know.

That "sex sells" in every walk of life.

One of my most important learnings is that every single person walks a different path. Every single person reacts to conflict and hardship differently. This is why I do my best to never judge people and their decisions and instead seek to understand where they are coming from.

This is probably why I've gone into Social Work...

This is one of the best questions I've ever read on prince.org.

I Have learned to:
Wear less clothes in summer!
Wear more in winter.

No seriously, I have learned that 99% of the complexity in the world is created by those in power

...and that something resembling love for each other (but OURSELVES, firstly) might be the catalyst that everything else builds up on (education, respect, etc) in finding the answer(s).

:cringes at his own post for being too sugar-coated:
:breaks out Beatles' 'All You Nee Is Love':
:cringes at self again:

*what a fitting post for a hot Dec 25 here in Australia.
Should I quit while I'm ahead? Naaah. :p

You're absolutely right. I've learned that the majority of people are self-centered assholes who don't care about anyone but themselves. Maybe not the majority, but there are A LOT OF THEM. On the road, in the stores, EVERYWHERE!!! It's disheartening to me. sad

The term "soul" has many meanings to different people. In most cases it has positive connotations, although its use in connection with education may be provocative of an entire spectrum of responses depending largely on one's personal belief system.

Uh, I think I made it clear what I meant in my post. I mean nothing religious by it if that's what you were implying. Also, I think there are some Jamiroquai fans out here that can explain it to you also
