Education: My Portal to the Future
Melody N. Quiambao
We were all innocent once we are born. We are so new to this world and we do not even know what lies ahead. We were like an empty book nothing written, just pure white papers that is ready to fill up with memories that we will be written on our own. As we open our eyes and cry, we can see already the beauty of life hidden on those smiles that we first sighted for being in the dark for so long. They are like glimpse of hope that someday we will wear and attained. Our parents raise us as we grew older. On the first 3 years of our living, we were taken care a lot but when we step up, they have taught us basic knowledge, necessarily for us to start our adventure as they were considered at the most fundamental one to be known and to be learned. On this part exact education is born.
As we supply ourselves basic knowledge, we develop our curiosity and explore more. We want to gain more knowledge about ourselves and to the world where we live that is why we enter school, which is a perfect ground for us to learn. In Here, we enhanced what we learned already to our parents and we attained something that we did not know existing at the first place. School is a place for us to practice socialization and to break through our shells to know ourselves our capabilities and our potentials hidden within. Educations helps us to travel from places to places with riding anything as it widens our perspective and imagination. Education makes us a better person with such intellectuality to make a difference and impact to the world. It plays an important role in writing down our own stories that we will be told and share for those struggling finding their own theme. Education also is the building block of our goals and commitments. It gives us the capability to dream and to achieve those dreams. It makes intangible tangible, invisible became visible and impossible became possible. Even though it is subdivided into three stages, still every stage has an impact and memoirs implanted in our heart, mind and soul. It is a door towards endless possibilities and can be serve as our wings in reaching the horizon that we deserve.
We are considered as voyagers in this world full of oceans and island. We will meet people with same intentions but different paths to be taken with. Educating ourselves I like making a blueprint. It enables us to navigate directions and to make impossible as possible itself. In searching for the most valuable treasure that we want to, education will help us to realized that itself is one of the most precious treasure that you will be held and will me nurture even further. This world is full of endless possibilities and we do not know what lies ahead at the end of this rainbow, but one thing is for sure, education is our portal to the future.
