Cogito, ergo sum- I think, therefore I am


Although  Latin wasn´t my favorite language at school, I had to think of this quote today.

Sometimes I have the feeling that some people don´t like to reflect because this process could be too much work for their brains, could be too exhausting. For others it is a worthless brain-process because they are told by others what to do in any situation --so no need for them to think ....

But where is autonomy? What about self responsibility?

Some people seem to have lost the ability to think for themselves-- or even think at all...frustrating to realize.
Has education failed in these cases??

...finally!!!!!!!!!!

I need some time to relax. Not because of too much work, just because of too much reflecting, wondering,.... Thinking is hard work, although I really love it. But according to all learning methods learners / thinkers need breaks in between. So this kind of writing fits perfectly;-)

2 days ago I chose a topic to write about. Finally! It´s hard for me to make a decision under pressure- time pressure. This course hasn´t been a long one and it is nearly over; tomorrow will be the last day together ...wow. Block 5...

Well,
I realize that I don´t have the same energy as at the beginning.Don´t find many words right now. Not unusual after a periode of writing and reading. So for now I have to focus my attention on my new project and edit and revise some writings.

Keep thinking and don´t forget the little breaks!
