“Who so neglects learning in his youth loses the past and is dead for the future.”

– Euripides, dramatist

Right on target Bogden.

When I was young, I could not wait to learn. When I went to
Kindergarden at the age of 4, I could tie my shoes, tell time,
and remember my phone number and street address.

When I turned twelve, the lights went on and I read nearly
every book at the Fremont, Ohio  Public Library.

When I graduated High School at 17 years old, I tested as a college graduate
in my senior year tests.

I will be 56 on September 21, and I still don't know what I want
to be when I grow up.

Thanks, Bogdan.  We have a lot more past to learn about than Euripides did, so now if we neglect learning for a few days, we're dead-meat against the people who stay motivated every day.

Robert, for at least the past 6 months you can say you've grown up to be a thought-provoking international author here with an consistent daily reading audience of 1,000's.

“Who so neglects learning in his youth loses the past and is dead for the future.” Thank you Bogdan! And the lucky kids: have a mother who reads to them a father who reads to them and takes them to the public library reads the newspaper, books with their children ;-) Linda

Bogdan,

Untill a person comes to the point where they accept the fact they are ignorant, they will never begin the process of learning.
