(Mr. Sweetness and I on top of Chich'en-Itza-2003)
MissE brought home a Weekly Reader magazine. I have always loved Weekly Reader. I am an information junkie. I love to read articles about people and places, ideas and philosophies. I am one of those annoying people that will be able to tell you something about almost anything--at least that is what my husband and children think. In reality, I know a smidgen of information about a million different things. Jack of all trades, Master of none---as my Mom always tells me!
In this Weekly Reader magazine there was an article about the Mayan Indians and their way of life. It had pictures and descriptions of Chich'en-Itza'(Mayan pyramid) ---I have personally been there! I climbed up the ninety two itty bitty steps. I felt an actual earthquake while I was on the top of that pyramid! (I was the only one that felt it--it was reported about two hundred miles away) I was so excited to pull out a book that my parents bought thirty years ago when they went and share it with MissE. I opened up this book and had to look for a few minutes. There is more information than I can absorb in that book. However, knowledge grows knowledge. I have been to the top of Chich'en-Itza but I know so little about the culture and life. One more thing to add to my bucket list. I want to go on a Mayan Ruin Tour.
So, I will continue to be an information junkie. Perhaps someday I will actually learn enough about a few subjects that I can talk about them for more than two minutes---or I might become a master at something!!!
