“Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school.” ― Albert Einstein

i think it is so damn true. education is not merely the acquisition of knowledge. it is much more than just the theories,formulas and definitions that we learn in school. education is something that makes us capable of living our lives in a civilized manner. so that when we are let out in the society after graduation, we ought to be well-disciplined, think and behave rationally. i think that`s what is least expected of so-called educated being. a noble spirit, a human being with civic senses, is my idea of an educated person. and i believe Sir Einstein was trying to imply the same in his quote. education is not just the possession of degree or certificate. it is the qualities like perseverance, patience, confidence, self-reliance and maturity that builds along in an individual during the years of schooling. and that is what matters at the end of the day, how well an individual has grown or evolved as a human being after all those years. because we would never be able to remember all that we learned or memorized. but surely, what remains are the traits and personalities that we have gained and brought along with us. and that is the true essence of EDUCATION!

lastly, life is an endless process of learning, or say education. there is so much to learn from each and everything around us. each realization, each experience is another step towards education. this process just continues, from cradle to the grave, and who knows, maybe, even after we kick the bucket?
