IntroductionHello Everyone!!My name is Ben Worku. I am married with two children ages 9 (girl) and 7 (boy) living in Arlington, VA. I love sports and detective movies and television series like Breaking Bad and Second Chance. However, my true passion is the nature. I also frequently read famous quotes concerning the environment and nature on Wiki Quotes, especially by Dalai Lama and Pope Francis. My favorite quote on nature is Dalai Lama’s response on nature. When Lama was asked about what surprises him, he said man, without hesitation. Because man sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived. My goal is to attain a Bachelor of Science by 2017 because the degree will give me the chance to acquire the skills and knowledge that I will need to make a real contribution to the global challenges facing humanity.
