another  in my family today, a serious one this time: my dad just graduated with a master of arts in religious studies (with honors). eight years of busting his butt in night classes while working full time to put two kids through college and help another stay alive through serious medical issues; at 53 years old he found a new passion and at 61 he's turned it into a truly meaningful accomplishment that will shape the rest of his life. he's an inspiration to me.

 

Truely inspirational story, much respect to your father for his accomplishment. Religous studies would be a super interesting degree to pursue.
