The benefits that higher education can provide are enormous. A well-educated person is much more likely to end up with a higher paying job, not to mention a better and healthier lifestyle and better self esteem to boot. Needless to say, people who earn at least a bachelor’s degree stand a better chance of improving their lives overall than those who only hold a high school diploma. The addition of a master’s degree and perhaps a doctorate, of course, only serve to enhance one’s prospects for a better life even more. Although, most of us have always been aware of this, many of us are simply tired of the educational scene once we finish high school. Then, because we are not qualified, we sometimes are forced to accept menial jobs rather than the choice jobs we would prefer. I think that if we all viewed education as the priority that it is throughout our lives, we would be better off.

IT'S TIME TO GIVE THE DECORATIONS A REST!
Greetings Everyone.
I enjoy the holidays as much as, or perhaps more than, the next person. Also, I particularly love the kinder gentler spirit that seems to overtake so many of us during that special season. Like most people, I like to decorate my home and I enjoy taking a ride to view the bright and shiny decorations of my neighbors. Sadly, Christmas is over and it won't be back for approximately 11 months. However, it's apparent in many neighborhoods here in suburban Chicago, that some people either aren't aware that the holidays are over, or they simply don't care. Not only do I see block after block of homes where the Christmas decorations are still in place, but some actually are displayed with lights still aglow! Christmas is gone for now, people, so give the decorations a rest!
