Learning For Later

Over a decade ago,
I read a book about
human eye color and genetics.

I had no immediate use
for that information.

I had picked up the book
at a store
based on its cover.
The writers’ voices were so engaging
I bought the book and read it.

Last week, I based a romance novel premise
on the information
I remembered from that book.

(I had forgotten the book’s title
and the authors
but I had remembered that information.)

Not everything you learn
has to be used
right away.

That investment could pay off
in the future.
