The opportunity and ability to learn are such amazing gifts. I think we tend to take the gift of learning for granted way too often. I know that kids sometimes fight it tooth and nail...they just don't see or understand the value of it. But, as parents, we understand the absolute necessity of a good education.
So, here's the question for today...are YOU continuing to learn? Do you enjoy learning new things? The medical experts say that learning new things is one of the secrets to slow down brain aging. Just like our bodies, without regular exercise, the muscles shrink and weaken.
To be honest, the older I get, the harder it is. It takes me longer, and more tries to learn new apps, memorize scripture or music, or just to learn anything new. But the rewards are so worth it!
One of the reasons I love working my business so much is that it requires me to keep learning, and pushing myself outside of my comfort zone. I've never liked to sit on the sidelines of life, and I don't want to start now. Life can be so exciting, and challenging. Just like it's not much fun to watch a game without lots of ups and downs, life can get pretty boring without challenges and rewards. If we never experience sorrow, we can't appreciate joy. Without bondage, we can't understand freedom.
So, I encourage you to keep on learning...stay involved in life....volunteer, read, learn a new craft, work puzzles....love without limits. It is SOOO worth it.
