4. Analysis is defined as the ability to break down a problem into component parts so that its organization is understood.
5. Synthesis is defined as the ability to put parts together to form a new whole view or aspect
6. Evaluation is defined as the ability to judge the value of materials for a given purpose

Memoirs, or the lack of them

It occurred to me in an instant that I should write about it. At that instant, every thing about that faint idea was clear to me. I could see how it could make a difference.

Then time passed by. One, two, three … millions of seconds passing over it, reducing the idea that was already a voiceless speck of dust into something much more insignificant.

The idea is lost. My mind is blank. I know that the same thought will perhaps never cross me again. But my fingers seem to be typing this out to the utter amazement of my blanked out mind.

I’m sure you know what I’m talking about… perhaps, not.

On Morals

Morals certainly should be taught, but they should not be based on lies. Apart from the fact that lies should be avoided just because they are untrue, lies have a nasty habit of catching up with us.

How to : Get a life?

Does being alive mean that you actually have a life?

Understand the term : Get a life

To understand how a person alive might not actually have a life, you got to see this comic strip.

You might have a blog, but you might still not have a life. Even pioneers of blogging didn’t have a life!
