I've just started reading The Real Thomas Jefferson, and even after only three chapters, I am excited to read the rest! His childhood was so interesting, and it's a great inspiration for me to search for more learning; he learned three languages and studied every subject under the sun before he had turned 20. I'm still working on German, and there are still a few subjects I've left untouched.
I suppose I shouldn't compare myself with him, because what's good for me to learn may not be (and probably isn't) what he needed to learn for his life mission. But still, it is an inspiring life so far, and I'm only getting started!

Post a Comment
Anyone can post a comment, but posting a comment doesn't guarantee it'll be posted, just so you know. At the moment, comments for correction will be sent just to me, while all the other comments will, Very Likely, be published on the blog itself after moderation. I'll still read every comment, and reach out to you to continue the conversation if I can, but in the off chance it's not posted, don't take it personally. This is largely to maintain focus on the topics at hand, and to avoid the confusion and ugliness often visible in comment sections across the internet.
Then again, this too is something I'm trying out, so if it doesn't work, let me know that too! :)
