Yes I know that this is my second posting about Veronica Mars. However Veronica has a lot to teach us and she is therefore worthy of yet another entry. Perhaps the most important lesson we can learn from this show is the importance of critical thinking and deductive reasoning. When we lose something or something turns out other than it should, do we take it for just happening, or do we examine why it may have turned out that way. For example, you are at a Christmas party and your best friend looks down at her Vera Bradley clutch only to realize that her beloved Justin Bieber keychain that her sorority sister gave her as a gift is suddenly gone. So do you just accept the fact that she will never be able to stare at that adorable little baby face again, or does the "Veronica in you" come out to figure out exactly what happened. This may include spreading out around the party to ask people if they have seen it, doing a stakeout of some nature, retracting your steps, etc. While this seems like a rather minor case, with practice the Veronica in you may eventually be capable of solving murders etc rather than just who stole my homework and is my boyfriend cheating on me.
