Kevin's Blog-o-Stuff

Ahh, last reason, the moment we have all been waiting for, err well, the one you've been waiting for, I presume. The final reason to persue/further your education is *drumroll* appreciation for your work. Might I add the gloating/brag rights. But in all honesty, I personally believe that if encouragement is the strive for anyone, it would be in what they do for a living, pride is in everyone, whether we choose to deny it or not. Face the music, and accept your pride. If you do something like flip burgers for the rest of your life, you won't be bragging about how much dough you get from a mere $11.50 an hour. Try about a $1,000 in half the time, but consider this, the brag comes from the hard work placed into it, bringing this sub-reason to surface as I write this; self rightousness. If you further your education and pour all you you blood, sweat, tears, and other bodily  into your work, the feeling of replenishment after doing so is probably the best feeling ever. Think of it l

As another reason to persue/further your education, this particular one reaches out to me the most; impact on society. If you want to further your education in nuerology or anatomy, you could possibly be  first to cure certain terminal diseases or even cancer, nothing is far fetched or impossible, even if it does sound like a total fluke. Let's say you work in psychology and discover that a brain has far more segments than could ever be imagined, or if you work in astronomy and see lifeforms on some distant planet, point is, discoveries are possible, and impacts are inevitable.

The reason I am making one of these posts just one reason is because i like to write with my own space, not just crammed together. Which brings ne to my next reason, spacing towards  field of specialties. If you're good at something, chances are, someone out there likes it, or wants to see that kind of stuff, you know what they say, there's a amrket for everything. It also applies to jobs, as well, if there's stuff to be done, chances are, there's a job for that. If your education is , your chances of getting a job in drawing, for example, there's computor animation, stop motion animation, landscape sketcher, professional portrait artist, professional landscape artist, etc.

Another reason as to why we should persue/further our education would be to acknowledge the benifits it brings. If you want to be a doctor, for example, chances are your paycheck will be fatter than me. But lets say you want to do something that you would love to do, like me and music, I would love to be a musician of some sort, nothing specific, maybe even a DJ or a singer, I would further my eduaction to do what i love, not that the money is important, just a mere bonus to stay financially stable, per say. To others, it brings happiness to those around them, and thats what they want, and of course, the money is most likely why people work in the first place, not saying its true for everyone, just a lot of them.

The following is just a mere reflection on my big question that i had thought to myself about for quite some time. My big question was "why should we persue/further our education?" Over the past few weeks, I have come up with a few reasons. This first reason is because learning is our way of life, and the more we learn, the better we are at understanding the lifestyle around us, whether it be good or bad, depending on the circumstance. We strive to learn, even though most of us may not be the most enthusiastic of students, we are social animals though, that will surely bring us somewhere in life.
