I was travelling back from office via a cab when I read a radio advertisement. It was about Women Education but it has got a beautiful message. "you read about articles on women empowerment, post several of them in social media, follow their news channel but it is YOU who when gets angry will leave no stone unturn to abuse that same women irrespective of relation and age. Is that what your education all about?"
As they say there are few things which touch your heart. The message has touched mine. When we all will be writing about the books we have read in the previous days and think about its teachings, do we ever stop and think what have we learnt from them?
My heart fills with displeasure if I find people so less in moral values that they wont think twice before they react angrily, deceit and be treacherous. Let me ask you what is the true meaning of reading books if you cant take the message it is delivering? The very next impression that comes to my mind is that they are ignorant and half educated . Half educated in the sense they know how to read and write but dont know how to think and speak. I am not talking about being straight forward. Not all straight forward people are rude. But it is the way you speak to someone matters. Words can hit more than a physical assault.
So while we are discussing about our various experiences in reading books, lets focus also on the teachings they have imparted. Lets make education our way of life. Lets learn as much we can and lets not forget the next time we deal with any odd situation.

Learning process should go on as long as we live. Not only from books and discussions, every experience of ours has a lesson to impart. If we only we take those lessons, keep them in mind and put them to use in our own life, we can never be truly educated. Our education is actually our growth as a human being.

ReplyDeleteYou haven't learned until you have implemented what you think you have learned.
