What is she, daft??


I didn't ask for clarification in my earlier post, but it is obviously important to mention that my thinking and modern usage of words are not always in sinc. Sometimes I do favor the older tradition writings and meanings but out of familiarity.

I have found it interesting to have many people who are very well educated and who I admire on many levels show immense disrespect toward religion's potential and the indivisible common union religion and natural medicine shares. To many modern minded individuals that would (should) give a whole new depth and logic to the spiritual teachings of our beloved KJV bible. *hearts*

Daft - the English version. :cuckoo:

:eusa_hand: Well, as I mentioned, many young adult styles can be a shock to the middle aged or those not in the public eye. I can see where her look is absolutely a bit awkward considering the comfort and balancing factor but not necessarily uncouth. Deft would be better fitting, perhaps, as she has a style of her own and obviously shows the artful ability to skillfully walk looking like a model dressed like a happy and efficient mother.
 
Yeah ... hey. Here's the thing, Melissa. I'm not under a rock. If all manner of women were already wearing 7" platform stilettos while they carried their babies sans car seat, it wouldn't be a shock this time.
