Dear Amy:

I am not keeping up with the computer technology of late 1990s… ! I tried just now to figure out, yet again, how to produce an emoji, but couldn’t. The only way I can do it is to copy your emoji and paste it here. Let’s see how it comes out:

It’s a nice giant smiley face emoji, I like the pink cheeks!

Dear Amy:

“The most intelligent people are the ones society has rejected“- I like this Inspirational Quote. It makes me think of the people who found out that the earth is not flat having been rejected by the people who believed that the earth is flat. Only a few months ago, I came across a woman who still believes that the earth is flat (a modern earth flatter, a science denier). She believes that all the scientific evidence that the earth is round… is part of a conspiracy.

I believe that intelligent people believe in the major principles of science. Problem is that when science and reality otherwise is inconvenient/ uncomfortable for people, many will reject reality so to regain their comfort zone. This reminds me of your Dec 7 Inspirational Quote: “Your comfort zone is not a blessing. It’s a curse.“- rejecting reality may be temporarily comfortable, but on the long-run, it is definitely a curse.

What do you think, Amy?
