I learned this the hard way. I was standing on campus between classes talking with some classmates. I told them (mostly people right out of highschool) that maybe I'm just "too old" to be going to college now. (I'm 29) I turned around to see a lady who must have been in her late 70's looking at me. She told me that I'm am not too old & that an education is priceless no matter what age you are. Just remember those words & hold your head high as you walk through the campus.
i think that sometimes,.... my own stubborness for not going back sooner.. I am going to be 24 this year and hopefully will be done soon. You are correct.. it's never too late and I learned to stop thinking about the if only's and what if's and concentrate on the NOW.....
