Why am I here?

Why do I pursue an education?
Because it's fun?
Because I feel powerful and satisfied with myself?

An education will not be a right for very long I feel...
My learning feels urgent all of a sudden.
I need to pursue this schooling with a purpose. A global, needful purpose...
I don't know what's happening,
but anyone with eyes and a mind to make sense of what they see should know
that things are falling apart
and I'm going to need my wits about me
and some smarts under my belt.

School has become something bigger than a place to express my angst
and escape my ignorance.
It's becoming less and less about me
and more and more about who and what will need me.
