Does One Go To School All His Life ?

Education - it is not the be-all and end-all of life . Education prepares to bear with the tests and trials of life. It has a bearing on what you do for the rest of your life. Once you have been been prepared, however, the world lies before you to be explored. You may go off and find wonders for yourself.

That is true you never cease to learn. Now with the Internet it is easier to become self educated.

As for me, I feel that i am a student all my life ..learning new things .. wanting to know more . Hence schooling never ends . Good luck.

I think we are being schooled throughout our lives. I don't think it necessarily means formal education. We learn things every day through the trials and tribulations of life. So, yes, I believe that we go to school, the school of life.

you are quite right .. it is schooling of life that matters .. no amount academic jargon would suffice your worldly experiences.

Everyone goes through life learning to be wise and unwise. I learn my life's lessons from people, animals and the environment. I also learn from the community of mylot. The discussions put up by my friends give me glimpses into their lives in their countries. I wish you a good weekend.

I agree that education never ends. This does not necessarily mean going to high school, college or University. Although that option is open to all people here. One can learn by reading, by doing free onlune courses, or buy going to community workshops. It is never too late to learn.

The full import of education is never recognized by your family, your colleagues, your close associates,your thick friends and so on. Education ..it never stops anywhere. It goes on unheeded.

For me education is a lifelong process. even in our day to day experiences, its part of the process of learning new things. What we had in school may also serve as a foundation in order for us to cope up with the changes going on around are environment. even in the simplest things we do, there is learning. when we socialize with others, thats also part of learning. thats why the more we learn things the more we become a better person. learning comes not only through the books we have read or thought in school but its also about how we face our lives everyday.

You may not go to school for the rest of your life but one thing for sure is that you will never stop learning for the rest of your life. There is always something new to learn everyday, ever second of our short life on earth.

I think schooling is important. I also think that you should get as much education as you can to get a great job. I also think that you should learn something new every day. You do not have to be in school to learn. You can learn on the job as well as watching television. I don't think you ever stop learning. I had to learn new things on my job. I had to deal with people that taught me new things very day too. Learning never ends no matter what or where you are.

Even after you finished schooling, you will still continue to learn. There's really no end in gaining knowledge. You can't learn everything in school. Based on my own experience, I learned more while traveling, staying and working in another country. There's simply no end in picking up few lessons everyday. Just look around you and observe what's going on.
