Edu-ma-cation!

Education can have plenty of affects on people. It can open the person up to new ideas, build their knowledge, and broaden their thinking. Sometimes it can even have an affect on what you believe in if you happen to find a new truth and is very interested in it. However, if a person doesn't look closely into what they receiving, then education will not improve the mind. A lot of people fail to realize that education offer us more possibilities and choices. They live off of that moronic qoute, "It's not what you know, it's who you know" and think that they will pass through life with a breeze, and let us not forget think that will soon receive all of the money in the world. Will the person you know get you into college with a degree to leave with? Will the person go with you to an interview with the saying of you getting the occupation you're applying for? But most importantly, are you willing to share that check with the person? It is true that sometimes it is who you know. At odds, when it's time for school and a job, that particular person will not be there to help you throughout the whole thing. Because of the fact that's it's such a beautiful thing in the world, the most at best, education is a job that you have to work hard to keep. You have to mentally lock it up and test it everyday in order for it to stay there and be ready to use whenever needed; you have to choose wisely what and what not to take in, learn from, and use; you have to take it as a way to create new ideas and to see things above other people; but most importantly, you have to be willing to share it. There was never an understanding as to why people feel the need to make people feel inferior to them education wise. Whenever you find that someone isn't as academically stable as you, don't sit there and try to make a fool of them and snicker; help them out. Don't ever let a person walk out of the room with the same knowing as when they walked in, especially if it wasn't any to start with. If it take all day then so be it; you'll just be MLK and they are the citizens of Washington. You cannot rush knowledge, you can only be patient. When receiving education, you have to mentally take notes and point out the things that are relevent and irrelevant. Sit there and ask yourself Do I need this? Will this help me in the long-run? Will this help me achieve my goals in life? To the uneducated, an A is just three sticks. ~A.A. Milne
