That's more or less the words mankind should take to heart and live by. This life just isn't long enough to learn all I want to learn both by experience and by reading. This is an excellent six word story so many of us could claim as our own. Blessings, Linda

Comment from Scarlettdreams
Just a few words pack a powerful punch here. So much truth in this little gem of verbage. I learned yesterday that if you put a paper towel in a plastic bag with you romaine lettuce it will absorb the moisture and keep your leaves from getting wilted. Bravo Bravo

Yes, and you also keep fresh herbs (like cilantro) fresh by putting them in a glass of water, and putting a paper bag over the herbs and the glass. You need to change the water every day, though. Thanks for an understanding review.
Comment from Judian James
This is excellent Alvin, just as your last one was before this.
Now, what can I say to please the editor when your piece is only 6 words? Your statement speaks volumes about your intellect and desire to grow.Everyone should heed your words. Excellent

Comment from honeytree
Loved this
and so true.
If we stop learning at a certain age, depression can creep in.
The immune system weakens, we are prone to infection.
Maybe we can die.

Thanks for understanding exactly what I wanted to convey. You understand how the mind and body are interconnected. Thanks for a good review.
Comment from Gypsymooncat
Stagnation is certainly a slow, but sure, killer of the human spirit. Your six words say so much about the threat of soul-death at the hands of narrow-mindedness and unwillingness to open the mind to new experiences and learning. As the saying says: "in learning, we grow". Well said Alvin! xoxoxo
