Importance of education

I want to talk about our education. First and foremost, a person who learnt something and a person who do not know something are not at the same point because the learned person is like a live person while unlearned person is like a dead person. A person who learnt something is better than an ignorant one because the learned can benefit the people. An ignorant person will say to you “put the pen down and take the gun”, it means they don’t know that the pen is mightier than a sword. Sometimes while you are going to school you will meet people, they will ask u where you are going. If you say I’m going to school, they will say to you why don’t u marry so that you get children because you are too old to learn. I advise you not to take such advices from such ignorant persons.
