Being an educator, I tend to live in my head a lot. My thoughts run wild as I ponder ways to make learning fun for all ages. One thing I know for sure, learning does not ever stop (no matter how hard we might try to resist),  and no one should ever feel that they are too old to learn. You don’t have to be an academic or book smart. Just stay curious about all the wonders the world has to offer. While your child/children are away at university or college, why don’t you take this opportunity to learn new skills, improve on old ones, or just use the time to inform yourself about this ever evolving world we live in.  There are so many ways to do so without spending a penny.

I challenge you to pick up a book, watch a documentary or simply search the internet in the quest to learn something every day. It will always throw new light on how you see the world.
