Re: OK my opinion...Like it or not

Since there are very few 'men' on the Board, and even fewer have participated in the discussion, I decided to ask my husband about his opinion. And here's what he said over the phone (at my Father-in-law's house):

Remember what the Old Man replied to Kuai-cheng King in the movie 'Kung Fu'? When the young apprentice showed his 'impatience' about 'time' and complained about his having been there for a long time, the Old Master asked him, "How long?". Then young 'King' caught himself and replied, "Not very long."

Another quote we love to use in our conversation is the one from the movie 'IQ' when Einstein, his niece and her future husband (both were also accomplished scientists) discussed the 'relativity' of time. Time 'froze' when people were falling in love, time is 'relative'...

About the concern of children, hubbie's comment is that 'making yourself happy and staying happy will set an example for the children to know that it is 'OK' to be happy.
