    Hi Yulandi,
    I’m so glad you found a moment to respond to the Sir Ken Robinson clip. He’s a delight and inspiration. I heard about this and TED through an SAFM radio show “Learning Something New From Someone Older”. Another wonderful character (by the sound of his voice and the content of his simple message) was a Michael Wolfe on the radio show. Apparently he is a designer from the UK. At 75 he admitted he still had an Active, Passionate Curiosity, and an Intense Appreciation of all that he Observed (we all share some amazing spaces afterall. Michael made mention of marvelling at the collection of books he had on hand, never mind everything else)…It made my Saturday to be introduced to suchlike reminders of all we know BUT don’t always keep in focus. RE-inspiring.
