What does simplicity means for me? I think it is the question for this week...

When you say simplicity I think of the way I like to teach my students, with easy but clear materials, for the lesson to be well understood.

Dear Vince, you are so complex that you have to grammatize everything, how could you pretend to talk about "simplicity" of teaching, when your first answer to this easy question is to quote the dictionary... Evil or Very Mad

For Real to be simple is to have a day with only one meal, be quiet at home, maybe go out to breath new hair, and come back to study, I would call this a "simple day"... What you think Krizel?

I think you should change the topic's title, not only "topic of the week", maybe "topic of the week: simplicity", Rolling Eyes

simplicity means easy?
