A problem with school is that you often become what you study. if you study, let say cooking, you become a chef. if you study law, you become an attorney, and a study of auto mechanics makes you mechanics. the mistake in becoming what you study is that, too many people forget to mind their own business. they spend their lives minding someone else's business and making that person rich

Read. read every chance you get. read to keep growing. read history. read poetry. read for pure enjoyment. read a book called life on a little known planet. it's about insects. it will make you feel better.
