When I first began my quest for grad school, a friend told me “Going back to school as an adult is like being rich.”
I’m not sure I totally understood what she meant. But last week I got a taste. The State-owned museums here in London have no admissions fees. So I could wander through one gallery, study one piece, have tea and even linger over the newspaper in the café. There was no rush to see every little thing in one visit. I can go back. I can take time to savor the great works with out jogging through with a check list.
What an incredible luxury.
