Do you have any holes to fill?

Jane Pauley, the award-winning journalist, passes on some advice she received from a graduate student.

Here is the student’s advice: “Somewhere in our childhood is a gaping hole. Fill this hole. This is the time to experience the world beyond.”

In an article in a recent issue of the AARP Magazine, Pauley suggests that we’re never too old to follow that advice.

Do you wish you had learned how to play a musical instrument when you were a child? Do you regret that you didn’t learn a foreign language? Did you concentrate on academics and neglect your tennis lessons?

Now’s the time to start filling up your holes.
