Welcome...let the musings begin

Yesterday NPR aired an interesting story on memory and keeping our brains nimble. The problem is I forgot the main points of the story. In case you missed the story or forgot it (in my case), I've included a link to the story: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=104058044

Enjoy!


As a Chinese ,I found the following statement of human nature is different from what we talked in the Thursday afternoon: One Definition of human nature in ancient China (1223-1296) which have been taught to every young child is that ” People at birth, Are naturally good. Their natures are similar, Their habits make them different. “This states the core credo of Confucianism as developed by Confucius' follower Mencius. The idea was enshrined in the state orthodoxy for the most part of imperial Chinese period: Human nature is good and unique.

Just share a thought with you!
