What is Education?

As a fact, Education cannot be described as one specific thing. Since the day that a baby is born, he seeks, hears, smells and feels everything around him. Since the day that this inexperienced infant begins to feel all these new-to-him things, he experiences them, reacts and learns the things that happen. He learns to react everything he could sense, tries to find what he is, and discovers his abilities by himself. When the infant gradually turns into a school boy, he starts discovering literacy. Step by step he grows into a teenager, discovers a different side in life and moves into the adulthood. Anything will he do, anything will he learn, but as a matter of fact he would never stop learning new things in his life. Though the idea of education is based on literacy in this modern society, all of the above stated facts are parts of anyone's education.

                   But why would people take literacy so differently and importantly? Different than the way they treat all the other things that they learn in their lives?

Let's discuss about it in my next post.. :)
