It is a new day and a new dawn. With that brings the opportunity to be a student of life. While you would think I get enough practice being a student in my ordinary life, I would be tired of being a student in life’s classroom, but that just is not the case. I think I will be a lifelong learner, and although they may not always be the lessons I want to learn, embracing whatever comes is half of the learning experience. Being in school makes it easy to learn a lot of new things every day. I hope the same will be true when I enter the working world. In fact, that is probably where the most learning will happen, and I cannot even imagine how much learning will take place. And as crazy as it seems considering how long I have been in school now, I have only scratched the surface of things learned. How is that even possible?! Taking on the role of a beginner every day is exciting and gives a freeing essence of innocence. Being a beginner means it is okay to make mistakes and ask for help. A beginner has the joy of seeing and doing things for the first time and remember what that thrill feels like. Life begins throwing real lessons at you the minute school ends, and learning will never take a back seat. No matter how far we get in life, there will be new adventures to conquer and experiences to be had. At no point can we neglect to endure life’s lessons and see the world through beginner’s eyes. It would be of great disservice to ourselves and the foundation of organized learning set for us. From that point, education is abstract and has no rules. The world is our new classroom.
