We were invited to write about our activity and about one of the children’s history for CF’s June newsletter.
After discussing with mom & dad and putting their thoughts and my recollections into words, I asked Dani about 10 questions and then assembled his answers.
Here is the outcome: Easy to read on CF’s site

I want to share now, in colloquial words, only 3 easy-to-understand statements that Kant holds to be rationally true, as Dr Firestone asserts in his book, In Defense of Kant’s Religion.
v the depravity of human nature: the human nature is evil by propensity (predisposition), but not from necessity;
v the necessity of a disposition that is both divine and human in order to ‘please’ God;
v the people morally converted to this “principle of good” or this “prototype of human perfection” need to band together in a community, so that they are less ‘tempted’ to relapse;
Conclusion? I wish I could attend such awesome conferences weekly! It helps make a clear understanding of concepts and visions I wouldn’t have the time and patience to study otherwise, even with the abundance of information that we have on the internet and in spite of the desire to know more..

We had snooow these days!.. a looot of snow - as much as we always had when we were kids.. The black trees were instantly beautified by the its purity and shine.. The thin branches were so loaded with snow that I was thinking they could actually brake under its weight!..
The day ended with the funniest children’s programme I have ever watched: the Children’s After School Club presentation for the parents.
Theme: Friendship with others, with your spouse & with God.
Witty skits, insightful songs with coregraphy, bells choir.. Wonderful! Like nothing I’ve ever seen.
Oh, and look what I got!

The birthday of the greatest Romanian poet, Mihai Eminescu [read a poem here], coincides with that of my best friend, Edith [see last year's post about her].
We had a short but fun birthday party at her place on the 15th..
with her girls..

I used to consider reading among my passions..but I’m afraid it isn’t!
If it would be, I would try harder to make it happen. I would arrange my schedule so that I can do it.. I need to read books and short stories for my seminars, but I never managed to read them all!
I love reading, but I just don’t seem to find enough time to read more..until..I enter the exams session!
I feel time is organized in a different way then. It goes by slower than usually and yet faster than I want.
Still..that’s when time seems to be all mine..
I wish I would be in this “read-every-spare-minute-you-have” mood the whole year! I wish I wouldn’t forget that I can really make time to read even when I’m so jammed up..
Reading really is something I love.

Among my latest readings is the saddest short story I have ever read: Melville’s Billy Budd, Sailor: (An Inside Narrative). I just found out that it isn’t finished.. that’s probably a clue..
A book I absolutley enjoyed reading is Hawthorne’s novel The Scarlett Letter. If you want to read it, read it as it is. If not, don’t just read its summary -don’t waste all its beauty! OK?? 
The style of the author is far more delighting than the mere story.

The book debates themes like legalism, sin, guilt, dignity, repentence, a person’s evolution and other’s involution, law, truth and so on and it concludes with the words:
“Be true! Be true! Be true! Show freely to the world, if not your worst, yet some trait whereby the worst may be inferred!”
