Becoming Educated.....A writers response?

  1. Education means to me? Having knowledge in certain subjects, being able to discuss a  subjects  in detail, and able to answer questions about that subject that people ask you. Having an education means that you are one step closer to getting that job you are trying for. Knowledge to get a certain job done or being able to train or lead people to get the job done. You have to have an education today in order to get anywhere in life or to advance in a job field. Having an education means that you are able to see when something is going wrong, and being able to fix problems when they do go wrong. Knowledge and education to me means power, being able to make that decision or being able to change the outcome. Without education people would be lost, they would be going in circles wondering where they are at. Education means security, making a good safe choice with what you know. Being educated in a certain field gives you the ability to understand people or their ways, being able to relate to their ways or customs. Education means possible saving a life or what it would take to save that life. Having an education makes you a leader and not a follower, someone that people can rely on or relate to. Having an education can also be a bad thing,  I have seen a lot of educated idiots in my days. These individuals think  they know everything about everything,or everyone but they just make a situation bad or worse than it was. A good example could be some of the politicians in office today. Education is a good thing if it is used in a good way.
