Ms. LoJ

For me it has nothing to do with monetary gain. There are college grads out there who don't make much money at all and work in thankless jobs. I am the child of an educator...believe me I know how it can be. But it does have everything to do with what I want instilled in my child. I want him/her to grow up understanding what I/we think is important in life and have an understanding that even if you plan not to pursue money you should pursue knowledge. Be an asset to your world and your community...not only in community service but in the manner in which you use/live your life.

My wife would also have to have the capacity to think freely and for herself...we should be able to have conversations on all subjects. We don't have to agree on everything but I would at least want her to have the capacity to debate and discuss issues on life, love, the world, religion, community, etc...
