No no no. Much better: read & grok all those unread books on my bookshelf, and then have looong conversations with me about their contents (and closely-related topics) at the times of my choosing. And when you quote from one of those books, don't be afraid to try to adopt the author's own voice.
When most people say "stop eating carbs", they are usually referring to the foods that have extreme amounts of carbs/sugars - "fast/junk foods", bread.
I know, but it frustrates me when people blanket say "stop eating carbs" plenty of instagrammers say that they've "quit sugar". When its just that they've quit simple processed sugars.
It sends the wrong message that carbs and sugar are bad, then they're not as long as you're not eating multiple chocolate bars.
Replying to 2 of your comments. I phrased "stop eating carbs" in the manner I had to speak to myself when first improving my diet because I HAD to use that kind of casual/humorous/forceful language. I agree I should have clarified that I really meant to restrict high glycemic index foods, but my comment was already very long and wasn't aware this specific phrasing would be so heavily scrutinized.
I have an uncle who came from Malaysia to the US in the 70's to do his studies. He was "given the task by his village elders.." as he would say and they did exactly that pooled resources and made sure he finished school. When I heard his story I was so moved. He's built everyone in his village a house, invested in many businesses now, literally changed lives of countless families and friends.
What a beautiful story. Both how the village came together to help him and how he remembered those elders and their contribution. Both are such rare gifts in a jaded world.
I agree, my 5 year old loves coming with random "inventions". He's proud of his random designs loves showing them off. He owns the whole of process coming up with idea to building it. It builds his confidence. I would not use this app.
I love it. Thanks for sharing. I felt like I could relate to the many job interviews I've been on lately. I made me thingk of my fear of change and reshaping myself. Even for me posting a comment on is a form of change from my norm - F the fear. the fear is over.
