Good old Just Journal has found a new home—its own.
It's a feeling that's both joyful and heartbreaking. For 20 years, we were "subtenants" on blogger.com, for which we remain grateful, but now, we're truly at home.
Welcome to the world of Simus.
"Sims" is a Latin word meaning "let us be".

Sensitization is not a miracle cure. Sensitization is the true instrument that modern society desperately needs.
Currently, the two decisive pillars of society are the school and the prison. Let us face and courageously admit the obvious: the vast majority of both schools and prisons merely drill and discipline, rather than make one sensitive.
Many civil organizations attempt to cultivate sensitivity in a few children within their reach through various soft programs, but their overall social impact is virtually undetectable.
