Comparison
of Expectation of Education and an Example from the Popular Culture
Right from the point when we were still young children
and never understood why we even needed to be in school, our parents have
always tried to show us and to prove to us that education is key in our life.
It is from that time that I began to hold a lot of value to education because I
believed and I still believe that there are a lot good things that can come
from being educated. Personally, I have never let my background influence my
decisions with regards to education and that is the reason I have devoted
myself, so as to ensure that I get so as to be able to gain significantly from
education. I believe that it is only through this education that I am pursuing
that will I be able to make an impact, in my community and the world in
general. I am determined to be knowledgeable and also practice my knowledge.
This is the same spirit that I would pass to my kids and
my kids’ children since I do have a lot of expectation from my love for
education. In the present day, education is key even influencing how one
relates to other individuals and also in enabling us understand and accept the diversity
of the world. The English language has made it possible for people from various
parts of the globe to be able to interact effectively thus accomplish various
goals with ease. One of the best form of popular culture that I can relate with
is books. My two favorite authors are Robin Sharma and Ben Carson. I tend to
admire the source of motivation that one is able to derive from most of the
books that are written those specific authors. The book, “Think Big” by ben
Carson enables me to relate my life effectively with his though and thus that
is where I derive my source of motivation and expectation from education. It is
the experiences that Ben Carson that enables me believe that any with the
ability to dream can make it in life regardless of where a person is in the
world. Books can be a great source of knowledge and a source of motivation if
only embraced by a majority of us.
It's interesting to learn that popular culture is really has a major Affect on education. However, the life story of M.D. Ben Carson is similar to the article that we took in class.
ReplyDeleteFirst-you are the only person that I saw that chose books and I think that's great! (It might mean we all spend too much time watching TV though!) Reading is a great way to find motivation and inspiration but I find it's sometimes difficult to find the time to read.
