My essential truth about life is that education is vital for a sustained future, not simply for the individual but for society. Education is the constant that contravenes roadblocks and provides opportunities for persons and societies to grow and enjoy the richness life gives.
This isn’t limited to formal education, but all forms of education are essential. If you aren’t learning something new, or delving deeper into a subject, then I wonder how you can be….living. Don’t you wonder? Don’t you want to know why? When? Where? What? How?
As I have grown, learned about education, taken on more responsibilities, and earned my masters degree, one constant remains—I will continue to seek education, study the pedagogy, and work towards advancing the belief that education is a societal benefit. Education is a means to a beginning not to an end. Paulo Freire speaks about education being the means to bring about true freedom for human beings, as it opens the door to civilization and makes it possible for individuals to think, act, and interact in the world.
