Education is fun! Education is what is known to be of use to get ahead in capitalist America. If you are serious about getting a job, a good paying job, you would continue your education as high as possible. For those who are not in need of it but seek an education for its instrumental value is another story. I say this because I believe they are selling themselves short because by going back to school or even going for the first time it will not be that fun. Education should be fun.

Education is intrinsic. I’m attending college for the pure fun of education. I do this not for a grade or to complete my degree, but because I want to completely understand what I am learning and make use of it. All I am saying is that if you look at all of your education as having a value far greater than just to earn money, then you will be happier overall with any of your careers. Not to mention going into a career because you like it, and not because you want the money.

Education is being able to create your own destiny. I have known too many people who have struggled without a degree, and even with a degree. Which would mean in today’s world education is not enough. Not only do you have to have bigger hopes and dreams but you have to have tactics. Instead of just using what you have been taught take what you have learned and widen that horizon and research or dig deeper into that subject. Education is not just about taking in what you are being taught. Education is Using what you have learned to become something an dto do something no one has ever done before. Education is opportunity.
