I dig new stuff. I like the fact that this new thing has been sitting on a shelf somewhere waiting for me to discover it. Sitting patiently until I acquire it.
I dig learning new stuff too. All of this wisdom out there just waiting to be learned. I wasn't particularly fond of learning as a kid in school. I just wasn't interested. Nothing had triggered my desire to learn. I can remember the first time I became thrilled with learning. I was in high school, hoping to God that 3 oclock would come. The teacher caught me spacing out and asked me a question concerning the subject she was discussing. Like a miracle I knew the answer and received acclaim from the other students. I was estatic from the feeling of being right. From that point on I was dead set on being right as often as possible.
So I started studying. And the more I studied the more I realized I liked it.
All of that was said to say, I learned something new today, and I liked it very much.
Alrighty- keep after it!
