...some people do marry for religious reasons and something called love too.

How many of those divorced people out there married for something other than "love," moog?

I hate to pour cold water on your idealism, but it's just like domestic adoption...you don't do it if you have a lick of sense.

People marry for a multitude of reasons.

Some religious people get divorced too, including some that married for religious reasons. My parents married for love AND religious reasons--they're still married too.

In your opinion I guess.

Sorry, I do have sense. I won't bore you with all the details. But I guess it is bad to have idealism, optimism, and to have a positive outlook on life. It isn't to me. I have seen too many things happen over 10 years of teaching to conclude otherwise. And yes, I have had plenty of disappointments and bad things happen. But I use that as a chance to grow and try to become a better person.

The parents of my students are often wonderful ones. I appreciate the opportunity I have each year to get to know them too. In one month of school, I have seen many miracles happen already. I can't wait for the rest of the year.

OK, I better get back to the topic. Boys wearing nail polish is just plain stupid, to put it bluntly. Ick!!!!!
