Since at least 2016 I have opened a new front of learning: Reading many Times articles, many Atlantic articles, and whatever else I can find daily that broadens my understanding. This learning has occupied my mornings most days for three to five hours, and it has felt like going back to college--or, more accurately, I think, to graduate school. All because I developed an appetite for learning more--and this appetite has only increased.I do have to turn my attention now to other areas of my life that are calling for deeper involvement. But I have learned a lot, about so many different topics, issues, histories, realities, etc. The key has been the hunger to learn more, which I've had the time to do the past few years--more willingly than when I attended college.I learned, at least, how to vote in America, and in very deep ways, why. Education does that. If you really want to learn.
