I recently started back to school attending Cornerstone University online. As it is right now, I’m studying Psychology and going for a Bachelors Degree. However, there was a time that I was interested in going for an Associates Degree in Accounting. I figured with Accounting, it would help me with my own budget and then I could help others too. And…I like math! But….

I also like Psychology even though it seems tough at times. Additionally, I fight mental illness myself so I figured it’d be cool to learn a lot more about what I deal with mentally. Just this week I learned about something called ACES (short for adverse childhood experiences). There’s a website on it. It was fascinating because I learned that a lot of what I went through as a kid were ACES. And that it has affected my entire life basically.

Cornerstone is a Christian university so I’m gaining strength in my faith too. I like that a lot. Faith and belief in God is something I didn’t have growing up. I do believe if we had, my childhood would have been much different. I don’t want to say my parents were bad parents but some of the stuff I dealt with was not good. Perhaps I’ll do a post on that another time if anyone is interested.

I think I’m going to stick with Psychology. Unless something in my heart changes, I really want to learn more in this field. Perhaps I can take a finance class as part of my schooling. That would give me more knowledge with budgeting.

So here’s a question…do you think I’m too old to go for a 4-year degree? I’m 54.

Peace & Love
