Why I'm soooo happy I finally have that master

Why I'm soooo happy I finally have that master:

-my parents, grand parents, husband are so proud
-educated women are a family tradition for those who could afford. Even my Bobover great grandmother went to superior studies after high school.
-for any job I can ask for a much higher starting salary, as I have a master (only 32% of the French have more than a BA - three year degree)
-I can teach in a public school and be a deluxe teacher much sought after in a private school (for example a Jewish school where I'll have the Jewish holidays)
-If I want to go for a doctorat/PhD I have the basis
-I can do translation or give tutoring even to adults as "master" is associated with "fully bilingual, academic, well cultured and competent person"
-in the same idea, I'm now respected in any intellectual circle (although less than a "dokto" with a PhD/doctorat ;) ) and they often overlap with frum circles
-I had finished and succeeded all the courses, it would have been to bad not to graduate
-I can now write articles in high quality magazines about related topics - and probably even others
-it is a kiddush Hashem to write a thesis on Yiddish and what it brings to non Jews
-it is a kiddush Hashem to show non Jews and non frum people that "even " a young, very frum, mother can succeed academically
-I hope that assimilated Jews may learn from this thesis and wish to come back, or at least to get interested in their roots, which is why I plan to offer it to Jewish institutions
-Yiddish is an endangered language, it needs to be written about!
-surveys show the degree of the mother has an influence on the children's school results and ultimately degrees, so I'm working for Mati and iyh my other children!
