Thank you!  I like that!  The "Learning" theories just never sit well with 
me; they sound too intellectual, and I can never do it.  I am a big believer 
in "experiential" learning, but that might not be expressing it well either. 
It just doesn't seem so neat and tidy and easy as the Learning theory always 
seem to make it sound.  I find it very difficult to change, and try as I 
might I can't make a change I desire.  Then I give up, and a year (or two, 
or three....) later one day I notice that something has changed, and I'm not 
sure how it happened.  It seems much more mysterious, even when I've read 
all of the theories.
 
Love, 
Karen
