Education is something that you need to have

A definate must with the impending reality of the world going from good to bad.

There are a lot of people in the world who don't understand

that when you have an education, you have the world in your hand

There are so many others who throw it all away,

who foolishly choose to leave it behind and walk away.

But they don't take the time to think about

what will happen to them in the coming days.

Without education, you can't have a future.

So don't stop, stick to the adventure.

There is so much more to it than studying and reading.

It's having experiences.

It's learning.

About yourself.

About others.

About the world.

And everything that makes us who we are.

And it doesn't stop with children.

Education is for adults, for everyone.

It doesn't matter who you are or what salary you earn,

even teachers can stand to learn more.

Like how to engage.

How to explain.

How to widen outlooks, how we look at the world.

Not just to teach.

But make them want to know more.

To learn more.

That alone could open up so many doors.

To a brighter and better future.

One they deserve

Where they are free to live, laugh, play.

For the sake of the young, know more to teach more.

So that there will be more oppurtunities for those who need it most.

Standing in front of a board and speaking is not enough.

No, that will just not cut

The barrier that exists between kids and school.

So don't just walk into class and hand out papers.

Don't just stand in front of us and recite facts,

To ramble.

Because that's a gamble

with the future of the students.

What you do now and how you do it will affect us.

Make us,

Break us.

So make education something we want.

Make it clear that we need it.

That it's important.

Talk to us like we so desperately want to talk to you.

Have a relationship with us.

A teacher who doesn't think about you,

About your interests,

About your goals,

is something that any student whould find hard to bare.

Please don't let us live with that fear.

Show your students that you care.

When a student leaves the classroom, don't let the learning stop there.
