Hi Drema,

Well, once I decided I wanted to go back to school for Bachelor's and then Master's, although I am determined and always working towards it, it just seems like it will take forever and in the beginning I was impatient. You know, America, instant gratification and all that. But I read a story that really put it into perspective for me. It was another adult student who was complaining to her mother that she wouldn't get her degree until after age 40. Her mother said,

"You're going to be 40 with or without your degree. Which would you prefer?"

Somehow, after reading that it all seemed easier. :-)
