Education Day

 It is the Education Day today, it seems. So it is declared by the UN. Indeed truly necessary it is at least in India as there is a huge lot of population that needs proper formal education denied due to socio-econocomic contexts.

The term education comes from the root, educare. Literally, it means to take across. That is what education does for us. It takes us across ignorance to knowledge indeed. Thus we traverse from falsehoods to the real, genuine truth about ourselves, about life, and so on!

Indeed education is like the oxygen. Absolutely essential, it gives a direction to our life. It shares the best and the bright with us. It opens up endless avenues.

All need education, but especially the downtrodden. May be, if they cannot come to school due to various types of cultural-socio- economic causes, schools should ago to them. Remember the Mountain-Mohammad debate!

Education is the bestest friend, next only to pet animals. Education truly makes men out of monkeys! Well, animals are born educated and learn so much about thriving in an extremely difficult context. Yet, man,  the weakest survivor in the chain of events, can become strong through education. Long live education!

 Do you like old Bollywood films? I sure do. They have a few stereotypes though, such as the 'beta who passes B.A. with first class'...
