Life

Why after working for 30 plus years did I think it was okay to go to college?  One finds that at my age there are things about the mind that are not as sharp as it used to be.  The big one is the MEMORY!  I find that I have to read things multiple times to understand what I have read.  Or maybe it is not the memory, maybe it is just everything going on in this household.  That sounds better than thinking my memory is failing me.  However, I have learned some things about myself.  That I still enjoy being in the classroom setting, that going back to school makes me look at things in a different perspective, and that even though I have to read some things multiple times, that I do eventual get what it is I am suppose to get.  When asked in class what my goals were in life, I answered:  Get my college degree and retire!!
