The Blog City Prompt Forum prompt for 1-1--17 says "One of my sons came home from the second day of his Kindergarten career and announced, “I learned enough.”
Taking your whole life into account, have you learned enough or at least as much as you’d like to have learned?"

I believe I have learned everything i have been meant to learn up to this point but I am never done learning. I feel that if I had so much as one piece of data floating around in my head that wasn't meant to be there it would change who I am at that moment. Each moment of my life is a little different than the moment before and with each passing moment I am a slightly different person. I feel that education is extremely important. I thought a comment Eddie Murphy made once during one of his monologues was very succinct. It was during the Reagan Administration when defense spending was so high. Eddie said we were spending more money on defense than on education and asked what was up with that. Then he said "We're producing smart bombs and stupid f........ children!"

I have spent a great deal of my life in pursuit of education and plan to return to school soon to finish a double major in Bible and Liberal Arts. So I don't think we ever stop learning.
