EDUCATION…PICTURESQUE OF A PERFECT ENVIRONMENT

Rico M. Pablo

How pretty…. how inviting….how life changing….this is probably the phrase that would best describe it. Education is the joy of cascading knowledge. Education is the ability to give amusement to the learners when they discover new things. Education is something that you look forward to each day because you go home fulfilled, especially when learners tell the teachers that they become an instrument of their inspiration. Alternately charmed, you would witness a student comes away with the sense of having quickly bonded with these teachers and classmates for whom grace under pressure, continual warm-heartedness and powerful smile to inspire amidst various academic problems, are constant. In a place with scholastic differences find common ground in the incomparable quality of hope, understanding and success. At the end of the day, you will realize that education can produce such successful individuals, then it will suddenly dawn on you that education are indeed a handmaid of God.

Education is not just whatever pedagogy demands. For me, it is to teach to be value-laden because education is not just knowing the value of money or knowing the value of work. It is finding inner happiness, so when someone grows up, he will know the value of things and not the price. For if a learner was able to know that being happy is the key to live a life, he will be able to produce beautiful people with contentment and success. As educators and learners, let us know that education is an invisible hand that is always ready to help when hope is absent.

Education is a good cycle. It is not only the learners who learn but also the educators. You are even rewarded with more than a glimpse of invariably fascinating culture in the face of education., full of joy, humor, courage and a song in the face of erudition, indecipherable academic problems and mind-blogging philosophies. In my learning experience in school. I was able to paint a picturesque of an ideal environment and I am still beckon by a carefree ambience where knowledge escalated with no end.
