Education... get it!

I stumbled across this quote on Mitt Romney's facebook.  I loved that he sees education as the KEY to success.  I would add quite a few other keys to his key ring. BUT, learning is one of the reasons we are on this earth. 

I was fortunate to have a few scholarships to help me through school.  I had to work hard to earn those scholarships.  I was frustrated when I became one of the first official online students through BYU-I, and I was unable to get academic scholarships (let me make it clear that I was LOVED the online program and would do it again in a heartbeat).  I had to take out student loans to finish.  My education was priceless.  It was worth every penny that I will have to pay back.  I feel more confidant in my abilities as a mother, and as a person that wants to be involved in the community.  I strongly encourage anyone that is wanting to get more education to go for it.  Let me add that I also encourage you to be prayerful about your decision.  I believe that the Lord knows the best timing, and he also can help open doors to make things happen for your good!
