I choose to let the teachings of Jesus instruct me about how to apply my faith. I show respect for our Vice-President by praying for Kamala Harris and by loving Kamala Harris as my neighbor, and I show respect for the fellow human beings waiting for their chance to be born by opposing their slaughter in the abortionist’s chamber.

It appears that math is something that parents don't feel as comfortable doing with their kids, we find that math is often something that parents view as the school's domain to instruct students on. So typically, when school is out, math just happens less in the home than reading.

An aspect of our uniqueness is the view we have of ourselves. Nobody exists with the same idea we have of ourselves. With our first breath we begin developing our attitudes toward life. When we mature, at whatever age, we are simply a combination and accumulation of all that has occurred up to now. It seem as though we are taught our feelings towards just about everything...as those who instruct us have been... and those that instructed them...and so forth. What might be important could be other than what others think. One of our abilities, as human, is that of choice. We can choose how we feel towards stuff based on our personal experience.
