Day 8

November 8
I am truly thankful for my education. Education is under appreciated. Most kids are in a hurry to get out of school. Some are in such a hurry they don't even make it to graduate. My husband regrets dropping out of high school. Well, slightly regrets because he wouldn't have met me if he hadn't. There were days I wanted to quit. Most of those days were days when I struggled with math. I am thankful for the teachers that helped me through high school. Some of them I even keep in touch with on Facebook. Some helped me discover myself and some helped me come out of my shell a little. Without my education, though, life would be so much harder. I have yet to actually use the pythagorean theorem in everyday life but I do use math often. I'm grateful that I am at least educated. I hope someday the dropout rate isn't so high.
