Lifelong Learning

Are we all still dreaming about school? I'm talking about the overnight, wake up in a cold sweat actual dream about being * years younger and back in school. Whether it's being late for class, unprepared for a test, or being lost, we are always reduced to that fear (and relief upon waking) even at * years old. Okay Dr. Freud, what does this mean? Is it a true fear of something else? Because learning isn't scary or is it? After learning about the 7 and a Half Highly Effective Habits of Lifelong Learning, I learned a few things about me. According to Habit #3 we should view all problems in life as challenges to learn from, not as crises. When a major life crisis comes, I tend to look back afterwards to find something I've learned or gained. During the problem, however, I just want to get through it. My current problem to get through deals with habit #6- technology. I think it's great once I've figured out how to use it, but as soon as this has happened, it changes. I've just mastered my DVD player, only to learn it too will be obsolete. I love the PC, but again, it keeps changing. I'm trying to figure out the difference between DSL and cable, which by the way are too expensive. Well, at least I can say I'm a Blogger now.
