Nancy and I had an interesting conversation last week. She told me that she and her husband had decided to take piano lessons. When I asked “Why?” her response was, “Why not?”

Nancy then followed her response up with, “It was always something we wanted to do so we decided to just do it.” I thought about this for a few moments and confided in Nancy that I had always wanted to learn Spanish. I had taken French in school and realized, in later years, Spanish would have been much more useful. I have also, every so often, looked at Adult Education classes and considered signing up for Introductory Spanish. But I have not yet done so.

Nancy’s and Bill’s example has, however, started me thinking about Spanish again. Have you ever taken, or thought to take, a class just for the sake of learning something new?
