Learning is Ongoing

“Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young.” ― Henry Ford. Quotes About Lifelong Learning. Good Reads. http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/tag/lifelong-learning Towards the end of the spring semester, I asked a classmate of mine what classes she was taking and she said she was taking a break. I seriously thought about taking a break, but my best judgment encouraged me to keep taking classes. After all, summer is a season, not a term for vacation. When I sit at my table to work on my class assignments, I feel happy, proud, and useful about myself. In fact, while I am studying, I am doing what I like doing; it is my hobby, my pastime, my time to myself. I am improving myself academically and professionally by taking all these classes. I don’t feel busy. This is how I keep my learning ongoing.

  1. That is so true Lwin. I can relate to what you said. I took one whole semester off to due family matters. It took me a long time to finally accept that I will take some time off to go see my parents because they were very ill. While I was back home, I kept thinking about school. I had to find things to do to keep me busy. Now that I am back to school I feel so nervous and scared all at the same time but I am still excited to be back. Learning is ongoing!
