I love to learn.
Luckily this trait motivated me to finish my college education (even though I am a decade older than traditional undergrads). I will be graduating with my B.S. from St. Catherine University this spring.
But with college behind me I don't want to stop learning. Let me explain what I've learned about myself.

1. I know a lot less than I thought I did.
2. When it comes to my interests, I have a little Attention Deficit Disorder problem.

3. Just because I have a degree, doesn't mean I've learned what matters.
4. I never have to stop learning.
I think there are millions of opportunities to learn for the sake of learning, to learn for fun and growth. These opportunities don't have to cost a lot and they don't have to be attached to a degree to be valuable.
Whether that's a class from Community Ed (I have a few coming up) or just simple library and web research-based investigations, learning can be fun and have no end goal except to learn.
So, I'm off with my kids and maybe something will catch my interest and I'll share what I've learned.
