The most important lessons are learned in school.
Firstly, the How's:
- How to be organised
- How to be creative
- How to be well-behaved
- How to never be late
- How to read and write
- How to perform your basic math
- How to treat your elders
- How to not talk back
Secondly, the What's:
- What is right and wrong
- What is true and false
- What you deserve
- What you should say
- What is the proper attire
And finally, the Who's:
- Who we all are
To conclude, the most important lesson is seen amongst the varying lengths of my sections of studies. The reason you see How- action- is dominant is that it is, fundamentally, the function of existence. How a young lady should cover so she can truly express herself; how no one should really embarrass themselves in a drunken state, so they can make decisions for themselves; how to have fun.
However, the What- fact- is contained within a smaller list because how we do things is forever changing. This can't be said for right and wrong, they will Always be right and wrong. What is the solution to misbehaviour; what is the best way to raise a happy child; what is a proper way for a woman to walk.
The final section of study, to decipher the meaning behind my discussion on Education today, is who?
Why only one lesson? Pertinently, if we are not who we are, how can we determine if we are right or wrong? How do know what actions to take? In essence, of course, we could say the virtue of Education is in fact: genuineness.
