The Hardest Arithmetic

The quote "The hardest arithmetic to master is that which enables us to count our blessings" has been brought to my attention. In my opinion, this quote has nothing to do with math. I think the hardest arithmetic is a task to be done. Any task done to help others will make us blessed. This quote kind of makes me think its related to Christmas and how helping others will earn us blessings. I really liked this quote because it ad me thinking for a while before I could write my response, it was challenging but good to give my opinion to. Hope you  guys enjoyed it!

Could I agree with Zachary?

I could not agree with Zachary because although math can be something worth having a passion for, he can wait a bit longer to attend college. This is a one-in-a lifetime opportunity. How can a 15 year old kid get accepted to college at such an early age just for having super math skills. I believe he should enjoy his childhood, better said teen years, before taking a big step. You know you only get to live once. I also disagree with his belief of choosing math over everything. I mean, yes it is very important concept, every human, as i sugggest, should experiment more subjects accademically, and who knows maybe math wasn't his calling! You can't make your life concentrated on one thing. Also, I thought when he stated he would choose it over everything, I feel he is giving up on all other important factors in his life and feelings for others.  Even though this is a great excellent opportunity, I sadly must disagree with this kids opinion.
