Day 13: I'm grateful for the education I've been able to obtain and the opportunities I have to continue to learn.
In detail:
Honestly, sometimes I forget how much school I've actually gone to and how many different things I've learned.
All the different subjects I studied in K-12:
The standard English, history, science, math. And the extras: 3 years of art, technical drawing, yearbook, speech and debate, newspaper, cooking, 4 years of German, 2 years of French, psychology, drama.
And then there's college:
2 years of in depth world history, statistics, 1 year of Italian, 1 quarter of French lit, world music, the Beatles, gospel choir, logic, BA in Linguistics, BA in Human Development, MA in Education.
It kind of amazes me when I think about the variety of things I've studied and learned. And while I don't claim to remember everything I've learned, I remember more than I would have expected given that I don't use most of it on a regular basis.
I'm also grateful for the opportunities I have to continue to study and learn new things, in my career and my personal life.
There is so much knowledge in the world and I get a little thrill of excitement when I realize that so much of it is available to me.
