hi.i need your ideas.i have been a teacher for ten years.but sometimes i feel a little boring.so i want to know if someday i can make a little change.now i have got a chance to study further in another city.no one knows if i can get any benefit from this study experience in the future.we all know that it is not easy to find a good job nowadays.so i am hesitating .i don't want to give up my present job which is a very good one in most people's eyes.another reason is that i have married.if i went there for two years,i thought it would be unfair to my hubby.many friends told me to give up this unrealistic thought.they said i was not so young to be a student again.but i really don't want to lose this opportunity.i take it as a dream all the time.to balance the reality and the dream,what should i do?

Two years is not such a long time compared to what studies can contribute to the advancement in your career. I believe this calls for a good talk with your hubby since this will involve the family to a large extent. Who knows he may even encourage you. Personally, I will consider studying, but then it depends on the decision that husband and wife can come up with.
enjoy life!

I should not think you should take a chance with an uncertain future.You have been working for some time now and are not at an age to really make a fresh start.Had you been able to carry on studying with your job you should definitely have gone for it.But as you point out jobs are not that easy to come by, it would not be fair on your family to give up on something that is paying enough. But it is your life and you should be taking the path that suits you best and to hell with advice to the contrary. Good luck!
