“The most important thing you will ever have is good values.”- Dennis prager

I agree with this quote by Dennis Prager. An individual should always have good values no matter what. Values are the set of rules we go by in our lives. It is important because our personalities will greatly depend on the quality of our values. Values are things that signify the core aspects of our self. Values will help you recover a clearer sense of what's most essential to you in life. Our values are important because they help us to grow and develop. They help us to create the future we want to experience. Without values in our lives we will not have a civilized society and we will lose all sense of meaning in our life- the two can’t be separated unless we lead a corrupt life with no sense of meaning. Good values are what make up our character and contribute to our daily lives.

Speech Pathologist

SPEECH PATHOLOGIST

Duties and Responsibilities: Speech-language pathologists (sometimes called speech therapists) assess, diagnose, treat, and help to prevent communication and swallowing disorders in patients. Speech, language, and swallowing disorders result from a variety of causes, such as a stroke, brain injury, hearing loss, developmental delay, Parkinson’s disease, a cleft palate or autism.

Salary: The median annual wage for speech-language pathologists was $73,410 in May 2015.

Education: Speech-language pathologists typically need at least a master’s degree. They must be licensed in most states; requirements vary by state.

Demands for this profession: Employment of speech-language pathologists is projected to grow 21 percent from 2014 to 2024, much faster than the average for all occupations. As the large baby-boom population grows older, there will be more instances of health conditions that cause speech or language impairments, such as strokes and hearing loss.
