"Do you know the difference between education and experience? Education is when you read the fine print; experience is what you get when you don't."
~Pete Seeger
I had heard somewhere that a person changes their career up to thee times in their lifetime. I don’t know…I don’t even know who said it. I have always did what I do. Early Childhood Education. The statistics I considered are not something I would to put on a resume (unless Dr. Suess is hiring), I thought mostly about my experiences. Do you think it's true? How a person see's the their career is how they experience it? ~Pete Seeger
